Mitigation bypass in the Networking: HTTP component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 149 and Firefox ESR < 140.9.
AnalysisAI
This vulnerability is a mitigation bypass in Firefox's HTTP networking component that allows attackers to circumvent existing security controls. Firefox versions below 149 and Firefox ESR versions below 140.9 are affected, enabling attackers to bypass authentication or other HTTP-level protections. While specific CVSS and EPSS scores are not provided, the mitigation bypass classification and Mozilla's issuance of security advisories indicate this requires prompt patching.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability exists in the HTTP networking stack of Mozilla Firefox (cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox) and Firefox ESR (cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox_esr), which handle HTTP protocol operations and related security mitigations. The root cause is classified as an authentication bypass, suggesting that security controls intended to protect HTTP transactions—such as header validation, certificate pinning, or other protocol-level protections—can be circumvented by a malicious actor. The issue was tracked internally by Mozilla in Bugzilla (bug 2003766) and addressed across two security advisories (MFSA 2026-20 and MFSA 2026-22), indicating it may affect multiple code paths or have been resolved in phases.
RemediationAI
Immediately upgrade Firefox to version 149 or later and Firefox ESR to version 140.9 or later via the built-in auto-update mechanism or manual download from https://www.mozilla.org/. For organizations that cannot immediately patch, implement network-level controls such as enforcing HTTPS with HSTS headers, deploying a web application firewall to detect suspicious HTTP patterns, and restricting outbound Firefox connections to trusted, verified endpoints. Monitor for any suspicious authentication bypass attempts in logs and consider disabling HTTP (non-HTTPS) traffic where feasible during the interim patching period.
