Descriptions
In the previous mitigations for Spectre, the resolution or precision of various methods was reduced to counteract the ability to measure precise time intervals. In that work PerformanceNavigationTiming was not adjusted but it was found that it could be used as a precision timer. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60, Firefox ESR < 60.1, and Firefox < 61.
En las mitigaciones anteriores para Spectre, la resolución o precisión de varios métodos se redujo para contrarrestar la capacidad de medir intervalos de tiempo precisos. En ese trabajo, no se ajustó PerformanceNavigationTiming, pero se descubrió que podría emplearse como temporizador de precisión. La vulnerabilidad afecta a Thunderbird en versiones anteriores a la 60, Firefox ESR en versiones anteriores a la 60.1 y Firefox en versiones anteriores a la 61.
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, read uninitialized memory, bypass same-origin restrictions, bypass CORS restrictions, bypass CSRF protections, obtain sensitive information, or execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
