It was possible to prevent a user from exiting pointerlock when pressing escape and to overlay customValidity notifications from a `&lt;select&gt;` element over certain permission prompts. This could be used to confuse a user into giving a site unintended permissions. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128 and Thunderbird < 128.
