The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a information management vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-199. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

Mozilla Firefox 33.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.31 include path strings in CSP violation reports, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a web site that receives a report after a redirect.

The weakness was published 12/02/2014 by Muneaki Nishimura as mfsa2014-86 as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is available at mozilla.org.

The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available. This vulnerability is assigned to T1592 by the MITRE ATT&CK project. The advisory points out:

Security researcher Muneaki Nishimura discovered that Content Security Policy (CSP) violation reports triggered by a redirect did not remove path information as required by the CSP specification. This potentially reveals information about the redirect that would not otherwise be known to the original site. This could be used by a malicious site to obtain sensitive information such as usernames or single-sign-on tokens encoded within the target URLs.

The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 79707 (FreeBSD : mozilla -- multiple vulnerabilities (7ae61870-9dd2-4884-a2f2-f19bb5784d09)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment.
