Cross-Site Tracing occurs when a server will echo a request back via the
Trace method, allowing an XSS attack to access to authorization headers and
cookies inaccessible to JavaScript (such as cookies protected by HTTPOnly).
To mitigate this attack, browsers placed limits on <code>fetch()</code> and
XMLHttpRequest; however some webservers have implemented non-standard
headers such as <code>X-Http-Method-Override</code> that override the HTTP
method, and made this attack possible again. Thunderbird has applied the
same mitigations to the use of this and similar headers. This vulnerability
affects Firefox ESR < 102.5, Thunderbird < 102.5, and Firefox < 107.
