Input displayed in the various sections (e.g. "History" and "Most Visited") of the "browser:home" page is not properly sanitised before being returned to a user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in context of "browser:home" if a user eventually displays this page after having visited a malicious website. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 11.7 build 35. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not visit untrusted websites.
