Firefox cryptomining protection must be enabled.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The Content Blocking/Tracking Protection feature stops Firefox from loading content from malicious sites. The content might be a script or an image, for example. If a site is on one of the tracker lists that Firefox is set to use, the fingerprinting script (or other tracking script/image) will not be loaded from that site. Cryptomining scripts use a computer's central processing unit to invisibly mine cryptocurrency.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
