Details

hi, we received a user report at https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Firefox/Possible-extension-virus-discovered/m-p/1383538#U1383538 linking some malicious behaviour to an extension with the ID "fr@fbt.ovh".

i couldn't verify this on my own, but according to https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/198334-help-frsttxt-and-additiontxt/ this the extension's name for this ID is "Adobe Flash Player" which sounds suspicious in itself.
Flagging this to Jorge and Andreas.

Yes, this should be blocked for stealing user credentials from high profile websites like facebook, apple, spotify, deezer, pandora....
