This is a big change for DOM Clobberers. Firefox Nightly no longer allows native document properties to be overwritten by elements with a name attr, e.g.:
<img src=a name=currentScript>
<script>
alert(document.currentScript)// HTMLScriptElement
</script>

Haven’t reported anything to Mozilla for a few years, but this is something pleasant to wake up to in the morning.
I spent quite a long time finding/crafting the minimal PoC for this report.Thanks the Mozilla team for being flexible on the reward for this. @TomRittervg @dveditz – at New Zealand

Attention Firefox bug bounty hunters: WebGPU is now enabled by default in Firefox Nightly and eligible for bounty rewards. It's a large chunk of new code with plenty of attack surface for everyone to share.

Here are the slides from the "Attacking JavaScript Engines in 2022" talk by @itszn13 and myself @offensive_con. It's a high-level talk about JS, JIT, various bug classes, and typical exploitation flows but with lots of references for further digging! saelo.github.io/presentation…
