| Severity | Low |
| Remote | No |
| Type | Cross-site scripting |
| Description | JavaScript can be injected into an exported bookmarks file by placing JavaScript code into user-supplied tags in saved bookmarks in Firefox before 57.0. If the resulting exported HTML file is later opened in a browser this JavaScript will be executed. This could be used in social engineering and self-cross-site-scripting (self-XSS) attacks if users were convinced to add malicious tags to bookmarks, export them, and then open the resulting file. |
