CVE-2025-11720: Vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox
The Firefox and Firefox Focus UI for the Android custom tab feature only showed the "site" that was loaded, not the full hostname.

This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 144.

Technical Summary
The vulnerability involves the Android custom tab feature in Firefox and Firefox Focus, which displayed only the "site" part of the loaded URL rather than the full hostname.
