CVE-2020-6812 Information

Description

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’. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird 68.6 Firefox 74 Firefox ESR68.6 and Firefox ESR 68.6.
