{"id":"USN-3991-2","summary":"firefox regression","details":"USN-3991-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update caused a\nregression which resulted in issues when upgrading between Ubuntu\nreleases. This update fixes the problem.\n\nWe apologize for the inconvenience.\n\nOriginal advisory details:\n\n Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were\n tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could\n potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, spoof the browser\n UI, trick the user in to launching local executable binaries, obtain\n sensitive information, conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, or\n execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-11691, CVE-2019-11692, CVE-2019-11693,\n CVE-2019-11695, CVE-2019-11696, CVE-2019-11699, CVE-2019-11701,\n CVE-2019-7317, CVE-2019-9800, CVE-2019-9814, CVE-2019-9817, CVE-2019-9819,\n CVE-2019-9820, CVE-2019-9821)\n \n It was discovered that pressing certain key combinations could bypass\n addon installation prompt delays. If a user opened a specially crafted\n website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to trick them in to\n installing a malicious extension. (CVE-2019-11697)\n \n It was discovered that history data could be exposed via drag and drop\n of hyperlinks to and from bookmarks. If a user were tricked in to dragging\n a specially crafted hyperlink to the bookmark toolbar or sidebar, and\n subsequently back in to the web content area, an attacker could\n potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2019-11698)\n \n A type confusion bug was discovered with object groups and UnboxedObjects.\n If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website after\n enabling the UnboxedObjects feature, an attacker could potentially\n exploit this to bypass security checks.
