Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.

When in an endless loop, a website specifying a custom cursor using CSS could make it look like the user is interacting with the user interface, when they are not. This could lead to a perceived broken state, especially when interactions with existing browser dialogs and warnings do not work.


Remediation

Install updates from vendor's website.
