CVE-2023-6209

Las URL relativas que comenzaban con tres barras se analizaban incorrectamente y se podía utilizar una parte de path-traversal "/../" en la ruta para anular el host especificado. Esto podría contribuir a problemas de seguridad en los sitios web. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox < 120, Firefox < 115.5 y Thunderbird < 115.5.0.

The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: Relative URLs starting with three slashes were incorrectly parsed, and a path-traversal "/../" part in the path could be used to override the specified host. This could contribute to security problems in web sites.
