Comment (by joedolson):

 In [changeset:"58167" 58167]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="58167"
 Administration: A11y: Hide thickbox close icon from screen readers.

 Add `aria-hidden="true"` to the dashicon symbol used as the `close` icon
 in Thickbox modals. Prevent the icon from being read as a replacement
 character by screen readers.

 Props stevejonesdev, sabernhardt, joedolson.
 See #61028.
