Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
By first using the AI chatbot in one tab and later activating it in another tab, the document title of the previous tab would leak into the chat prompt. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 137.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

This is a cross-tab state leakage vulnerability in Firefox's AI chatbot feature. When a user interacts with the AI chatbot in one tab containing a document with a specific title, then activates the chatbot in a different tab, the document title from the previous tab improperly persists and leaks into the chat prompt of the new tab, enabling information disclosure across tab contexts.

MitigationUpgrade to Firefox 137 or later to receive the patch that properly isolates tab state and prevents document title leakage between tabs.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check Firefox version
    Open Firefox, go to Menu > Help > About Firefox, or navigate to about:support, to view the installed version number
    Affected if Version number is less than 137.0 (e.g., 136.x, 136.0.x, 135.x, etc.)
  2. Verify AI chatbot feature presence
    Look for the AI chatbot integration in Firefox. This may appear as an AI assistant icon, prompt bar, or chrome://browser/content/ai-chat feature in the browser chrome. Check about:support for AI-related components or search for 'AI chatbot' in browser settings
    Affected if The AI chatbot feature is present and available in the browser (feature was introduced in Firefox 136)
  3. Confirm cross-tab session state
    Open two different tabs, navigate to different documents with distinct titles, then activate the AI chatbot in each tab sequentially. Observe if the second tab's chatbot prompt retains the document title from the first tab
    Affected if The document title from one tab appears in the chat prompt of another tab when switching between tabs with the AI chatbot active

A user is affected if they run Firefox version below 137.0 AND have the AI chatbot feature enabled, where switching between tabs with different document titles causes the previous tab's title to leak into the new tab's chat prompt.
