**Window.Opener Bug**
**Description:**
When you open a link in a new tab ( target="_blank" ), the page that opens in a new tab can access the initial tab and change it's location using the window.opener property.
**Browsers Verified In:**
* Mozilla Firefox
**Steps To Reproduce:**
1. Visit https://www.coinbase.com/
2. In Image F133659, If you notice the links go through `https://www.coinbase.com/external_redirect` except "Bloomberg"
3. Since Bloomberg works on `http`, If you're in the same network you can manipulate the bloomberg page and inject a script which manipulates `window.opener`
`window.opener.location.replace("https://www.notcoinbase.com");`
I understand this is very trivial to exploit and does not have very big impact
