Severity	+ Low
Remote	+ Remote
Type	+ Content spoofing
Description	+ Punycode format text in Firefox before 57.0 will be displayed for entire qualified international domain names in some instances when a sub-domain triggers the punycode display instead of the primary domain being displayed in native script and the sub-domain only displaying as punycode. This could be used for limited spoofing attacks due to user confusion.
