Esto puede resultar en un escalado de privilegios obteniendo el control de las sesiones de navegación de usuarios con mayores privilegios. El ataque parece ser explotable si la víctima es engañada mediante ingeniería social para que visite una página web vulnerable que contiene una carga útil maliciosa. La vulnerabilidad parece haber sido solucionada en la versión 17.11."
