ANSSI (CERT-FR) published an advisory referencing Mozilla's security bulletin MFSA2026-73, disclosing a vulnerability affecting Firefox for Android versions prior to 153.0.3. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-18809, is described as impacting confidentiality of data, meaning an attacker could exploit it to gain unauthorized access to information handled by the browser.
No evidence of active exploitation is provided in the advisory. Mozilla has released a fixed version (153.0.3) and users/administrators are advised to update via the official security bulletin. This is a routine vendor patch disclosure rather than an active threat campaign.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries live profiles of the CVEs it names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 16,433 reports from 149 sources, 661 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them, not the rest of the week's. Nothing is charged unless you subscribe.
