The names of AirPods with personally identifiable information were exposed to websites with camera or microphone permission - CVE-2020-6812ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:61962 | Date: (C)2020-03-12 (M)2023-11-19 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: macos |
Mozilla Firefox 74, Mozilla Firefox ESR 68.6 and Mozilla Thunderbird 68.6 : The first time AirPods are connected to an iPhone, they become named after the user's name by default (e.g. Jane Doe's AirPods.) Websites with camera or microphone permission are able to enumerate device names, disclosing the user's name. To resolve this issue, Firefox added a special case that renames devices containing the substring 'AirPods' to simply 'AirPods'.
