  - Following the recent Chrome sandbox escape (CVE-2025-2783), various Firefox developers identified a
    similar pattern in our IPC code. A compromised child process could cause the parent process to return an
    unintentionally powerful handle, leading to a sandbox escape.  The original vulnerability was being
    exploited in the wild.  This only affects Firefox on Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected.
