Keyboard events reference strings like “KeyA” that were at fixed, known,
and widely-spread addresses. Cache-based timing attacks such as Prime+Probe
could have possibly figured out which keys were being pressed. This
vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.5, Thunderbird < 102.5, and Firefox
< 107.
