Mozilla Firefox before the Preview Release, Mozilla before 1.7.3, and Thunderbird before 0.8 may allow remote attackers to trick users into performing unexpected actions, including installing software, via signed scripts that request enhanced abilities using the enablePrivilege parameter, then modify the meaning of certain security-relevant dialog messages.

security flaw

Mozilla before 1.7.6, and Firefox before 1.0.1, allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary web sites by injecting content from one window into a target window whose name is known but resides in a different domain, as demonstrated using a pop-up window on a trusted web site, aka the "window injection" vulnerability.

security flaw

Heap-based buffer overflow in MSG_UnEscapeSearchUrl in nsNNTPProtocol.cpp for Mozilla 1.7.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via an NNTP URL (news:) with a trailing '\' (backslash) character, which prevents a string from being NULL terminated.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 allows inactive (background) tabs to launch dialog boxes, which can allow remote attackers to spoof the dialog boxes from web sites in other windows and facilitate phishing attacks, aka the "Dialog Box Spoofing Vulnerability."

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 allow inactive (background) tabs to focus on input being entered in the active tab, as originally reported using form fields, which allows remote attackers to steal sensitive data that is intended for other sites, which could facilitate phishing attacks.

Mozilla before 1.7, Firefox before 0.9, and Thunderbird before 0.7 allows remote attackers to determine the location of files on a user's hard drive by obscuring a file upload control and tricking the user into dragging text into that control.

Unknown vulnerability in LiveConnect in Mozilla 1.7 beta allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files in known locations.

Mozilla before 1.6 does not display the entire URL in the status bar when a link contains %00, which could allow remote attackers to trick users into clicking on unknown or untrusted sites and facilitate phishing attacks.

security flaw

Mozilla allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from null dereference or infinite loop) via a web page that contains a (1) TEXTAREA, (2) INPUT, (3) FRAMESET or (4) IMG tag followed by a null character and some trailing characters, as demonstrated by mangleme.

Mozilla allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from invalid memory access) via an "unusual combination of visual elements," including several large MARQUEE tags with large height parameters, as demonstrated by mangleme.

Mozilla Firefox before 0.10, Mozilla 5.0, and Gecko 20040913 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash or memory consumption) via a large binary file with a .html extension.

The Apple Java plugin, as used in Netscape 7.1 and 7.2, Mozilla 1.7.2, and Firefox 0.9.3 on MacOS X 10.3.5, when tabbed browsing is enabled, does not properly handle SetWindow(NULL) calls, which allows Java applets from one tab to draw to other tabs and facilitates phishing attacks that spoof tabs.

Opera offers an Open button to verify that a user wishes to execute a downloaded file, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to construct a race condition that tricks a user into clicking Open via a request for a different mouse or keyboard action very shortly before the Open dialog appears. NOTE: this is a different issue than CVE-2005-2407.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 allow remote attackers to load local files via links "with a custom getter and toString method" that are middle-clicked by the user to be opened in a new tab.

security flaw

Firefox 0.9, Thunderbird 0.6 and other versions before 0.9, and Mozilla 1.7 before 1.7.5 save temporary files with world-readable permissions, which allows local users to read certain web content or attachments that belong to other users, e.g. content that is managed by helper applications such as PDF.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 display the SSL lock icon when an insecure page loads a binary file from a trusted site, which could facilitate phishing attacks.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 display the secure site lock icon when a view-source: URL references a secure SSL site while an insecure page is being loaded, which could facilitate phishing attacks.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive data from the clipboard via Javascript that generates a middle-click event on systems for which a middle-click performs a paste operation.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5, when configured to use a proxy, respond to 407 proxy auth requests from arbitrary servers, which allows remote attackers to steal NTLM or SPNEGO credentials.

Mozilla does not prevent cookies that are sent over an insecure channel (HTTP) from also being sent over a secure channel (HTTPS/SSL) in the same domain, which could allow remote attackers to steal cookies and conduct unauthorized activities, aka "Cross Security Boundary Cookie Injection."
