Mozilla Foundation reports:

+
Jann Horn of Google Project Zero + Security reported that speculative execution performed + by modern CPUs could leak information through a timing + side-channel attack. Microsoft Vulnerability Research + extended this attack to browser JavaScript engines and + demonstrated that code on a malicious web page could + read data from other web sites (violating the + same-origin policy) or private data from the browser + itself.
+
Since this new class of attacks involves measuring + precise time intervals, as a parti al, short-term, + mitigation we are disabling or reducing the precision of + several time sources in Firefox. The precision of + performance.now() has been reduced from 5μs + to 20μs, and the SharedArrayBuffer feature + has been disabled because it can be used to construct a + high-resolution timer.
