Description
A security issue has been found in Firefox < 55.0. JavaScript in the about:webrtc page is not sanitized properly being being assigned to innerHTML. Data on this page is supplied by WebRTC usage and is not under third-party control, making this difficult to exploit, but the vulnerability could possibly be used for a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.
