Descriptions

The `fetch()` API and navigation incorrectly shared the same cache, as the cache key did not include the optional headers `fetch()` may contain. Under the correct circumstances, an attacker may have been able to poison the local browser cache by priming it with a `fetch()` response controlled by the additional headers. Upon navigation to the same URL, the user would see the cached response instead of the expected response. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123.

La API `fetch()` y la navegación compartían incorrectamente el mismo caché, ya que la clave de caché no incluía los encabezados opcionales que `fetch()` puede contener. En las circunstancias correctas, un atacante podría haber podido envenenar el caché del navegador local preparándolo con una respuesta `fetch()` controlada por los encabezados adicionales. Al navegar a la misma URL, el usuario vería la respuesta almacenada en caché en lugar de la respuesta esperada. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox &lt; 123.

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. Alfred Peters discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when storing and re-accessing data on a networking channel. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service.
