MEDIUM 4.3EPSS 1.46%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Through a series of navigations, Firefox could have entered fullscreen mode without notification or warning to the user. This could lead to spoofing attacks on the browser UI including phishing. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 94, Thunderbird < 91.3, and Firefox ESR < 91.3.
