6.1/10

EPSS
0.00092/1

CVE-2024-9397 is a clickjacking vulnerability affecting Firefox and Thunderbird. This flaw involves a missing delay in the directory upload UI, potentially allowing attackers to trick users into unknowingly granting permissions. Specifically, versions prior to Firefox 131, Firefox ESR 128.3, Thunderbird 128.3, and Thunderbird 131 are vulnerable.

The lack of input validation and proper timing controls makes users susceptible to granting unintended access. While the CVSS score is 6.1 (Medium), indicating a moderate level of risk, the SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) is 58. Although not critical (above 80), this still signifies a notable risk, particularly if exploited in the wild. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized file uploads and potential data breaches. Users of affected Firefox and Thunderbird versions should update immediately to mitigate this threat.
