CVE-2022-40956

When injecting an HTML base element, some requests would ignore the CSP's base-uri settings and accept the injected element's base instead.

MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 0.88%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.88%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

When injecting an HTML base element, some requests would ignore the CSP's base-uri settings and accept the injected element's base instead. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.3, Thunderbird < 102.3, and Firefox < 105.
