CVE-2013-1698: Mozilla Firefox

Medium severity, CVSS 4.3. EPSS: 1.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The getUserMedia permission implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 22.0 references the URL of a top-level document instead of the URL of a specific page, which makes it easier for remote attackers to trick users into permitting camera or microphone access via a crafted web site that uses IFRAME elements.

Affected products

  • Mozilla Firefox: up to and including 21.0; version 19.0 only; version 19.0.1 only; version 19.0.2 only; version 20.0 only; version 20.0.1 only
