An improper implementation of the new iframe sandbox keyword <code>allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation</code> could lead to script execution without <code>allow-scripts</code> being present. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.9, Firefox ESR < 91.9, and Firefox < 100.

Una implementación incorrecta de la nueva palabra clave de iframe sandbox <code>allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation</code> podría provocar la ejecución del script sin que <code>allow-scripts</code> esté presente. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Thunderbird < 91.9, Firefox ESR < 91.9 y Firefox < 100.

A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue of Firefox not protecting against top-level navigations for an iframe sandbox with a policy relaxed through a keyword likely to allow top-navigation-by-user-activation.
