 This is related to issue #29725
 (https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/29725). The changes made to
 resolve #29725 work for text boxes that can be edited, but the URL box is
 read-only, and because of that, the fix has no effect.

 On the Attachment Details screen, an attachment's URL is only shown in the
 URL box. But typically, most of the URL is not shown, since it's longer
 than the box size. To see the end of the URL, I can use the End key, but
 that leaves the middle of the URL, which for many URLs I can only see if I
 can move the cursor with the left/right arrow keys.

 You could make the URL box completely inaccessible (disable the cursor
 completely), but then the box would be essentially useless as a source of
 information. That seems to leave only one remaining choice, which is to
 disable attachment navigation using the left/right arrow keys when the
 cursor is in the URL box.
