Description

CVE-2026-124902 is a high-impact vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox that allows bypassing the same-origin policy due to a race condition in the Audio/Video component. This flaw was addressed and fixed in Firefox 160 and Firefox ESR versions 115.45 and 153.7. The same-origin policy is a critical security mechanism that restricts how documents or scripts loaded from one origin can interact with resources from another origin. Exploitation of this vulnerability could potentially allow unauthorized cross-origin interactions within the browser.
