CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26966
CWE-ID:
CWE-200 - Information exposure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the way Firefox performs searches of single-word queries. Searching for a single word from the address bar cause an mDNS request to be sent on the local network searching for a hostname consisting of that string. A remote attacker with the local network can intercept the DNS query and obtain information, searched via browser address bar.
Note, the vulnerability affects Windows users only.

CVSSv3.1: 2.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26965
CWE-ID:
CWE-200 - Information exposure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the way software keyboards are handled by the Firefox. Some websites have a feature "Show Password" where clicking a button will change a password field into a textbook field, revealing the typed password. If, when using a software keyboard that remembers user input, a user typed their password and used that feature, the type of the password field was changed, resulting in a keyboard layout change and the possibility for the software keyboard to remember the typed password.
A local user leverage this behavior to gain access to passwords, stored by software keyboards.

CWE-ID:
CWE-358 - Improperly Implemented Security Check for Standard
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a DNS rebinding attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the way Firefox filters IPv4 mapped IP addresses. When DNS over HTTPS is in use, it intentionally filters RFC1918 and related IP ranges from the responses as these do not make sense coming from a DoH resolver. However when an IPv4 address was mapped through IPv6, these addresses were erroneously let through, leading to a potential DNS Rebinding attack.
