CVE-2018-5172 Mozilla: Pasted script from clipboard can run in the Live Bookmarks page or PDF viewer
Last modified: 2018-05-24 01:18:10 EDT
The Live Bookmarks page and the PDF viewer can run injected script content if a user pastes script from the clipboard into them while viewing RSS feeds or PDF files. This could allow a malicious site to socially engineer a user to copy and paste malicious script content that could then run with the context of either page but does not allow for privilege escalation.
