CVE-2020-6830 (GCVE-0-2020-6830)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-05-26 17:06 – Updated: 2024-08-04 09:11

Summary
For native-to-JS bridging, the app requires a unique token to be passed that ensures non-app code can't call the bridging functions. That token was being used for JS-to-native also, but it isn't needed in this case, and its usage was also leaking this token. This vulnerability affects Firefox for iOS < 25.
