Description
The issue is related to errors in privilege management within the isolated environment of the Firefox for Android browser's iframe. It could allow a remote attacker to impact data integrity. The vulnerability can be exploited through navigations using the Android-specific

For versions prior to 85, update to version 85 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
intent URL scheme to minimize the risk of exploitation. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
