Descriptions
The nsCSPHostSrc::permits function in dom/security/nsCSPUtils.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 does not implement the Content Security Policy Level 2 exceptions for the blob, data, and filesystem URL schemes during wildcard source-expression matching, which might make it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by leveraging unexpected policy-enforcement behavior.
Vulnerabilidad en la función nsCSPHostSrc::permits en dom/security/nsCSPUtils.cpp en Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a 40.0, no implementa excepciones de nivel 2 del Content Security Policy para el blob, los datos y el sistema de archivos de esquemas URL durante la búsqueda de coincidencia entre expresiones de código y el comodín, lo que podría facilitar a atacantes remotos realizar ataques de XSS mediante el aprovechamiento del comportamiento inesperado del cumplimiento de políticas.
