Service Workers did not detect Private Browsing Mode correctly in all
cases, which could have led to Service Workers being written to disk for
websites visited in Private Browsing Mode. This would not have persisted
them in a state where they would run again, but it would have leaked
Private Browsing Mode details to disk. This vulnerability affects Firefox <
107.
