firefox/seamonkey: XSS via improper handling of javascript: URIs in certain HTML links

Mozilla Firefox 3.0.13 and earlier, 3.5, 3.6 a1 pre, and 3.7 a1 pre; SeaMonkey 1.1.17; and Mozilla 1.7.x and earlier do not properly handle javascript: URIs in HTML links within 302 error documents sent from web servers, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors related to (1) injecting a Location HTTP response header or (2) specifying the content of a Location HTTP response header.

Visual truncation vulnerability in Mozilla 1.7.12 allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar and possibly conduct phishing attacks via a long hostname, which is truncated after a certain number of characters, as demonstrated by a phishing attack using HTTP Basic Authentication.

security flaw

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the JavaScript engine for Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.1, 1.5.x before 1.5.0.9, Thunderbird before 1.5.0.9, SeaMonkey before 1.0.7, and Mozilla 1.7 and probably earlier on Solaris, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown impact and attack vectors.

firefox/seamonkey: XSS due to data: URIs in refresh header

Mozilla Firefox 3.0.13 and earlier, 3.5, 3.6 a1 pre, and 3.7 a1 pre; SeaMonkey 1.1.17; and Mozilla 1.7.x and earlier do not properly block data: URIs in Refresh headers in HTTP responses, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors related to (1) injecting a Refresh header that contains JavaScript sequences in a data:text/html URI or (2) entering a data:text/html URI with JavaScript sequences when specifying the content of a Refresh header. NOTE: in some product versions, the JavaScript executes outside of the context of the HTTP site.

The Javascript engine in Mozilla 1.7 and earlier on Sun Solaris 8, 9, and 10 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving garbage collection that causes deletion of a temporary object that is still being used. NOTE: this issue might be related to CVE-2006-3805.

Argument injection vulnerability involving Mozilla, when certain URIs are registered, allows remote attackers to conduct cross-browser scripting attacks and execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in an unspecified URI, which are inserted into the command line when invoking the handling process, a similar issue to CVE-2007-3670.

Local privilege escalation vulnerability in Mozilla VPN clients for macOS v2.27.0 and below.

A vulnerability in Mozilla VPN on macOS allows privilege escalation from a normal user to root. *This bug only affects Mozilla VPN on macOS. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability was fixed in Mozilla VPN 2.28.0 (macOS).

Firefox Tag Order Vulnerability

nsHTMLContentSink.cpp in Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird 1.x before 1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, Mozilla Suite before 1.7.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors involving a "particular sequence of HTML tags" that leads to memory corruption.

security flaw

Netscape 6.2.3 and earlier, and Mozilla 1.0.1, allow remote attackers to corrupt heap memory and execute arbitrary code via a GIF image with a zero width.

Mozilla 1.0 allows remote attackers to steal cookies from other domains via a javascript: URL with a leading "//" and ending in a newline, which causes the host/path check to fail.

The Javascript "Same Origin Policy" (SOP), as implemented in (1) Netscape, (2) Mozilla, and (3) Internet Explorer, allows a remote web server to access HTTP and SOAP/XML content from restricted sites by mapping the malicious server's parent DNS domain name to the restricted site, loading a page from the restricted site into one frame, and passing the information to the attacker-controlled frame, which is allowed because the document.domain of the two frames matches on the parent domain.

The POP3 mail client in Mozilla 1.0 and earlier, and Netscape Communicator 4.7 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (no new mail) via a mail message containing a dot (.) at a newline, which is interpreted as the end of the message.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the FTP view feature in Mozilla 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the title tag of an ftp URL.

The IMAP Client for Mozilla 1.3 and 1.4a allows remote malicious IMAP servers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via certain large (1) literal and possibly (2) mailbox size values that cause either integer signedness errors or integer overflow errors.

security flaw

The XMLHttpRequest object (XMLHTTP) in Netscape 6.1 and Mozilla 0.9.7 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files and list directories on a client system by opening a URL that redirects the browser to the file on the client, then reading the result using the responseText property.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Netscape 6.2.3 and Mozilla 1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to crash client browsers and execute arbitrary code via a PNG image with large width and height values and an 8-bit or 16-bit alpha channel.

security flaw

Mozilla before 1.4.2 executes Javascript events in the context of a new page while it is being loaded, allowing it to interact with the previous page (zombie document) and enable cross-domain and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, as demonstrated using onmousemove events.

Mozilla 0.9.6 and earlier and Netscape 6.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to steal cookies from another domain via a link with a hex-encoded null character (%00) followed by the target domain.

security flaw

Netscape 6 and Mozilla 1.0 RC1 and earlier allows remote attackers to determine the existence of files on the client system via a LINK element in a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) page that causes an HTTP redirect.

Netscape 7.0 and Mozilla 5.0 do not immediately delete messages in the trash folder when users select the 'Empty Trash' option, which could allow local users to access deleted messages.
