Firefox for iOS displayed specially crafted right-to-left (RTL) and internationalized domain names (IDNs) incorrectly in link preview UI surfaces. A crafted RTL hostname could visually reorder portions of the displayed domain, causing attacker-controlled sites to appear as trusted origins. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox for iOS 151.1.
