When network partitioning was enabled, e.g. as a result of Enhanced Tracking Protection settings, a TLS error page would allow the user to override an error on a domain which had specified HTTP Strict Transport Security (which implies that the error should not be override-able.) This issue did not affect the network connections, and they were correctly upgraded to HTTPS automatically. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 90.

CVE-2021-29974 Firefox vulnerabilities
Title: Firefox vulnerabilities
Summary: Firefox could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it
opened a malicious website.
Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were
tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, overlay text
over another domain, or execute arbitrary code.
Instructions: After a standard system update you need to restart Firefox to make
all the necessary changes.
