firefox vulnerabilities

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, bypass security restrictions, spoof the URL bar, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-6831, CVE-2020-12387, CVE-2020-12390, CVE-2020-12391, CVE-2020-12394, CVE-2020-12395, CVE-2020-12396)

It was discovered that the Devtools’ ‘Copy as cURL’ feature did not properly escape the HTTP POST data of a request. If a user were tricked in to using the ‘Copy as cURL’ feature to copy and paste a command with specially crafted data in to a terminal, an attacker could potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information from local files. (CVE-2020-12392)
