Descriptions

Searching for a single word from the address bar caused an mDNS request to be sent on the local network searching for a hostname consisting of that string; resulting in an information leak. *Note: This issue only affected Windows operating systems. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5.

Una búsqueda de una sola palabra en la barra de direcciones causó que se enviara una petición mDNS en la red local buscando un nombre de host que constara de esa cadena; resultando en una filtración de información. *Nota: este problema solo afectó a los sistemas operativos Windows. Otros sistemas operativos no están afectados.*. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox versiones anteriores a 83, Firefox ESR versiones anteriores a 78,5 y Thunderbird versiones anteriores a 78,5
