firefox: Development Tools panels of an extension are required to load URLs for the panels as relative URLs from the extension...
CVE-2018-5112 is fixed in 4 products on 1 platform, first by firefox 59.0.1+build1-0ubuntu1, released June 11, 2018. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
Development Tools panels of an extension are required to load URLs for the panels as relative URLs from the extension manifest file but this requirement was not enforced in all instances. This could allow the development tools panel for the extension to load a URL that it should not be able to access, including potentially privileged pages. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 58.
