Firefox Bug 1763632 (or: how to not fix a security issue)

[madires]

I've just stumbled across this masterpiece of ignorance: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1763632

WIth a little bit DNS tweaking of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses you can hijack connections to specific websites when the victim has only IPv4 internet access.

Does not surprise me a single bit.

Does not surprise me a single bit. 

nah... more than expected...   given the plethora of stuff piled in browsers...
an enormous JavaScript  engine to track adds and users...

I am surprised if that thing does not has  at least a dozen leaks flaws bugs.. direct ports...

That kind of think does not worry me anymore..

As long as I can preserve restore my tools and keep things working as they should.. (at least)

The rest...   same old miserable buz of before.. no surprises

HTTP/2 implementation flaw. Am not surprised. It’s too complicated.

This one doesn’t worry half as much as some of the architectural failures of Firefox and the platform ports.
