CVE-2025-6434: HTTPS-Only exception screen lacked anti-clickjacking delay

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 17/100)

  • 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: 0.28% (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: MozillaFirefox (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 140.1.0-150200.152.193.1; MozillaFirefox-branding-SLE (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 140-150200.9.21.1; MozillaThunderbird (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 140.1.0-150200.8.230.1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to MozillaFirefox (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 140.1.0-150200.152.193.1; MozillaFirefox-branding-SLE (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 140-150200.9.21.1; MozillaThunderbird (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 140.1.0-150200.8.230.1 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

The exception page for the HTTPS-Only feature, displayed when a website is opened via HTTP, lacked an anti-clickjacking delay, potentially allowing an attacker to trick a user into granting an exception and loading a webpage over HTTP. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 140 and Thunderbird 140.
