USN-6201-1: Firefox vulnerabilities
Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were
tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive
information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-37201,
CVE-2023-37202, CVE-2023-37205, CVE-2023-37207, CVE-2023-37209,
CVE-2023-37210, CVE-2023-37211, CVE-2023-37212)
