CVE-2024-11694: Enhanced Tracking Protection's Strict mode may have inadvertently allowed a CSP `frame-src` bypass and DOM-based XSS through the Google Safe
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 24/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.51% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: qemu-guest-agent (AlmaLinux:10) 18:10.1.0-16.el10_2.alma.1; qemu-img (AlmaLinux:10) 18:10.1.0-16.el10_2.alma.1; qemu-kvm (AlmaLinux:10) 18:10.1.0-16.el10_2.alma.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to qemu-guest-agent (AlmaLinux:10) 18:10.1.0-16.el10_2.alma.1; qemu-img (AlmaLinux:10) 18:10.1.0-16.el10_2.alma.1; qemu-kvm (AlmaLinux:10) 18:10.1.0-16.el10_2.alma.1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Enhanced Tracking Protection's Strict mode may have inadvertently allowed a CSP `frame-src` bypass and DOM-based XSS through the Google SafeFrame shim in the Web Compatibility extension. This issue could have exposed users to malicious frames masquerading as legitimate content. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 133, Firefox ESR < 128.5, Firefox ESR < 115.18, Thunderbird < 133, Thunderbird < 128.5, and Thunderbird < 115.18.

Limit the impact of XSS
This is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. A well-configured Content-Security-Policy doesn't fix it, but greatly reduces its impact. Check your site's CSP and other security headers for free.
