CVE-2020-26961
When DNS over HTTPS is in use, it intentionally filters RFC1918 and related IP ranges from the responses as these do not make sense coming from a DoH resolver.
Impact
When DNS over HTTPS is in use, it intentionally filters RFC1918 and related IP ranges from the responses as these do not make sense coming from a DoH resolver. However when an IPv4 address was mapped through IPv6, these addresses were erroneously let through, leading to a potential DNS Rebinding attack. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5.
Affected products
| Vendor | Product | Affected versions |

| Mozilla | Firefox | before 83.0 |
| Mozilla | Firefox Esr | before 78.5 |
| Mozilla | Thunderbird | before 78.5 |
