Many ROP errors in Firefox

I've made the experience, that ROP events in browsers in most cases aren't related to the browser itself, but one of the installed addons/plugins (your adblockers, and other tools) that triggers that behaviour. That's also the reason why it mostly triggers on one browser, but not another...(no / different addons)

A ROP event also necessarily hasn't to be bad/a real attack. But it indicates, that there is that ROP technique used by intent/by accident.

This document explains the various techniques to get an idea what all the "ROP", "DEP", "LOCKDOWN" etc. Stuff means, if you want to update your knowledge about exploit techniques

Thank you SaschaParis for the info.

I suspect the AddOn Kee.

Is there a way to set an exception for single AddOns?

Sadly not, as the plugins are running inside the browser process(es). No way to distinguish for the AV to create a specific exception. I take those ROP's in browsers personally as informational only, at least if they occur only intermittently. As they got blocked, nothing bad happened, and a ROP event also doesn't lead to a termination of the browser process, it usually - besides of the ROP notification popup - doesn't interfere with your workflow as websurfing continues to work normally.

You can expect that detected  ROP  events are a legit detection, but in browsers often gets triggered by non conform or strange coded plugins and not necessarily due a real attack.

ROP is a finally Method, not a Malware. It's only a potential threat/malicious behaviour depending on the according context why a ROP event occurs.
