Severity
5.4 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L
Summary
Firefox for iOS displayed specially crafted right-to-left (RTL) and internationalized domain names (IDNs) incorrectly in link preview UI surfaces. A crafted RTL hostname could visually reorder portions of the displayed domain, causing attacker-controlled sites to appear as trusted origins. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox for iOS 151.1.
