Descriptions
By rewriting the Host: request headers using the webRequest API, a WebExtension can bypass domain restrictions through domain fronting. This would allow access to domains that share a host that are otherwise restricted. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 60.3 and Firefox < 63.
Al reescribir las cabeceras "Host: request" que utilizan la API webRequest, WebExtensions pueden omitir las restricciones de dominio mediante la fronting del dominio. Esto permitirÃa el acceso a dominios, cuyo acceso es normalmente restringido, que comparten un host. La vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox ESR en versiones anteriores a la 60.3 y Firefox en versiones anteriores a la 63.
