Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 48.0 and Firefox ESR 45.x before 45.3 process JavaScript event-handler attributes of a MARQUEE element within a sandboxed IFRAME element that lacks the sandbox="allow-scripts" attribute value, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted web site.

Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a 48.0 y Firefox ESR 45.x en versiones anteriores a 45.3 procesa atributos de controladores de eventos JavaScript de un elemento MARQUEE dentro de un elemento IFRAME aislado que carece de valor de atributo sandbox="allow-scripts", lo que facilita a atacantes remotos llevar a cabo ataques XSS a través de un sitio web manipulado.
