| Detailed Description |
The remote system does not apply USN-4140-1 which is firefox security update. The system which does not apply the update is affected by the error that no user notification was given when pointer lock is enabled. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to hijack the mouse pointer and confuse users.
Note: This check solely relied on the firefox DPKG version of the remote system to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
