Descriptions
In violation of spec, cookie prefixes such as `__Secure` were being ignored if they were not correctly capitalized - by spec they should be checked with a case-insensitive comparison. This could have resulted in the browser not correctly honoring the behaviors specified by the prefix. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 127.
En violación de las especificaciones, los prefijos de cookies como `__Secure` se ignoraban si no estaban en mayúsculas correctamente; según las especificaciones, deberían verificarse con una comparación que no distinga entre mayúsculas y minúsculas. Esto podría haber provocado que el navegador no respetara correctamente los comportamientos especificados por el prefijo. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox < 127.
