Bug 1696159 notes that a compromised content process can cancel a WebAuthn transaction in another process by guessing its transaction ID. The current implementation of NextID assigns IDs from a (per-process!) counter. So starting a transaction in one tab and then in another results in both transactions having ID 1. I think this is the cause of some intermittent failures in browser_abort_visibility.
