I found a vulnerability in firefox nightly (i tested on Samsung M31 ) where a geolocation permission alert notification can cover fullscreen notifications which can lead to spoofs.

step to reproduces:

  1. https://pipabajabakrie.com/upload/geofullscreen.html
  2. click on button "Try it"
Flags: sec-bounty?

new POC:

  1. open https://pipabajabakrie.com/upload/geofullscreen2.html
  2. click on button "Open GOOGLE"

Thank you!
Important to note that this only affects the scenarios in which the toolbar is placed at the bottom (default).
Would be fixed with the same approach as on bug 1816059.

@Hafiizh Can you confirm that the current Nightly avoids this issue?

As we expected, this did turn out to be fixed by the redesigned mechanism in bug 1816059 making this essentially a dupe for purposes of the bug bounty.
