Original advisory details:

 Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were
 tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
 potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive
 information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-5722,
 CVE-2023-5724, CVE-2023-5728, CVE-2023-5729, CVE-2023-5730, CVE-2023-5731)

 Kelsey Gilbert discovered that Firefox did not properly manage certain
 browser prompts and dialogs due to an insufficient activation-delay. An
 attacker could potentially exploit this issue to perform clickjacking.
 (CVE-2023-5721)

 Daniel Veditz discovered that Firefox did not properly validate a cookie
 containing invalid characters. An attacker could potentially exploit this
 issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2023-5723)

 Shaheen Fazim discovered that Firefox did not properly validate the URLs
 open by installed WebExtension. An attacker could potentially exploit this
 issue to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2023-5725)");
