High CVSS 8.1

CVE-2026-74981

Mozilla Firefox

Site isolation issue in the Audio/Video: Web Codecs component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 154, Firefox ESR 153.1, Thunderbird 154, and Thunderbird 153.1.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
Impact
An attacker can read sensitive data and modify or destroy data.
Weakness
A request’s origin is not validated, letting a third-party site act on the user’s behalf.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle.
