Mozilla Firefox

Mozilla before 1.7, Firefox before 0.9, and Thunderbird before 0.7, allow remote attackers to use certain redirect sequences to spoof the security lock icon that makes a web page appear to be encrypted.

Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6 does not restrict xsl:include and xsl:import tags in XSLT stylesheets to the current domain, which allows remote attackers to determine the existence of files on the local system.

The TCP Socket API implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 mishandles array boundaries that were established with a navigator.mozTCPSocket.open method call and send method calls, which allows remote TCP servers to obtain sensitive information from process memory by reading packet data, as demonstrated by availability of this API in a Firefox OS application.

Mozilla Firefox 3.6.3 on Windows XP SP3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and application crash) via JavaScript code that creates multiple arrays containing elements with long string values, and then appends long strings to the content of a P element, related to the gfxWindowsFontGroup::MakeTextRun function in xul.dll, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-1571.

Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.15 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.10 do not properly handle an invalid .properties file for an add-on, which allows remote attackers to read uninitialized memory, as demonstrated by use of ISO 8859 encoding instead of UTF-8 encoding in a French .properties file.

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.6 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.15 do not properly restrict access from web pages to the (1) Set-Cookie and (2) Set-Cookie2 HTTP response headers, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from cookies via XMLHttpRequest calls, related to the HTTPOnly protection mechanism.

Mozilla Firefox before 27.0 on Android 4.2 and earlier creates system-log entries containing profile paths, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application.

Mozilla Firefox 3.6.3 on Windows XP SP3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption, out-of-bounds read, and application crash) via JavaScript code that appends long strings to the content of a P element, and performs certain other string concatenation and substring operations, related to the DoubleWideCharMappedString class in USP10.dll and the gfxWindowsFontGroup::GetUnderlineOffset function in xul.dll, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-1571.

Mozilla Firefox before 29.0 on Android allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar via crafted JavaScript code that uses DOM events to prevent the reemergence of the actual address bar after scrolling has taken it off of the screen.

The nsObserverList::FillObserverArray function in xpcom/ds/nsObserverList.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 3.5.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted web site that triggers memory consumption and an accompanying Low Memory alert dialog, and also triggers attempted removal of an observer from an empty observers array.

Mozilla Firefox 3.0 beta 5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via JavaScript code that calls document.write in an infinite loop.

Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to spoof the contents of the status bar via a link to a data: URI containing an encoded URL. NOTE: the severity of this issue has been disputed by a reliable third party, since the intended functionality of the status bar allows it to be modified.

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.

The Search feature in Mozilla Firefox before 42.0 on Android through 4.4 supports search-engine URL registration through an intent and can access this URL in a privileged context in conjunction with the crash reporter, which allows attackers to read log files and visit file: URLs of HTML documents via a crafted application.

Mozilla Firefox before Firefox 2.0.0.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.9, can automatically install TLS client certificates with minimal user interaction, and automatically sends these certificates when requested, which makes it easier for remote web sites to track user activities across domains by requesting the TLS client certificates from other domains.

The Form Fill feature in Firefox before 1.0.1 allows remote attackers to steal potentially sensitive information via an input control that monitors the values that are generated by the autocomplete capability.

Firefox, when opening Microsoft Word documents, does not properly set the permissions on shared sections, which allows remote attackers to write arbitrary data to open applications in Microsoft Office.

Multiple "missing security checks" in Firefox before 1.0.3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary Javascript into privileged pages using the _search target of the Firefox sidebar.

Mozilla Firefox 2.0, possibly only when running on Windows, allows remote attackers to bypass the Phishing Protection mechanism by representing an IP address in (1) dotted-hex, (2) dotted-octal, (3) single decimal integer, (4) single hex integer, or (5) single octal integer format, which is not captured by the blacklist filter.

The JavaScript implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 4.0, Thunderbird before 3.3, and SeaMonkey before 2.1 does not properly restrict the set of values contained in the object returned by the getComputedStyle method, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about visited web pages by calling this method.

Netscape Navigator 7.0.2 and Mozilla allows remote attackers to access cookie information in a different domain via an HTTP request for a domain with an extra . (dot) at the end.

Mozilla Firefox 4.x through 5, Thunderbird before 6, SeaMonkey 2.x before 2.3, and possibly other products, when the Direct2D (aka D2D) API is used on Windows, allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy, and obtain sensitive image data from a different domain, by inserting this data into a canvas.

Firefox 1.5.0.1 allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar and possibly conduct phishing attacks by re-opening the window to a malicious Shockwave Flash application, then changing the window location back to a trusted URL while the Flash application is still loading. NOTE: a followup was unable to replicate this issue.

The saltProfileName function in base/GeckoProfileDirectories.java in Mozilla Firefox through 28.0.1 on Android relies on Android's weak approach to seeding the Math.random function, which makes it easier for attackers to bypass a profile-randomization protection mechanism via a crafted application.

The CheckLoadURI function in Mozilla Firefox 1.8 lists the about: URI as a ChromeProtocol and can be loaded via JavaScript, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by querying the browser's session history.

The file download dialog in Mozilla Firefox 0.10.1 and 1.0 for Windows allows remote attackers to hide the real file types of downloaded files via the Content-Type HTTP header and a filename containing whitespace, dots, or ASCII byte 160.

dom/base/nsJSEnvironment.cpp in Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.11 and 3.6.x before 3.6.7, Thunderbird 3.0.x before 3.0.6 and 3.1.x before 3.1.1, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.6 does not properly suppress a script's URL in certain circumstances involving a redirect and an error message, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about script parameters via a crafted HTML document, related to the window.onerror handler.

Mozilla Firefox before 36.0 does not properly recognize the equivalence of domain names with and without a trailing . (dot) character, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass the HPKP and HSTS protection mechanisms by constructing a URL with this character and leveraging access to an X.509 certificate for a domain with this character.

Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 through 2.0.0.3 does not canonicalize URLs before checking them against the phishing site blacklist, which allows remote attackers to bypass phishing protection via multiple / (slash) characters in the URL.

Mozilla Necko, as used in Firefox, SeaMonkey, and other applications, performs DNS prefetching of domain names contained in links within local HTML documents, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine the network location of the application's user by logging DNS requests. NOTE: the vendor disputes the significance of this issue, stating "I don't think we necessarily need to worry about that case."

Mozilla Firefox before 8.0 and Thunderbird before 8.0 on Mac OS X do not properly interact with the GPU memory behavior of a certain driver for Intel integrated GPUs, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and read image data via vectors related to WebGL textures.

Mozilla Firefox before 5.0 does not properly enforce the whitelist for the xpinstall functionality, which allows remote attackers to trigger an installation dialog for a (1) add-on or (2) theme via unspecified vectors.

The implementation of Content Security Policy (CSP) violation reports in Mozilla Firefox 4.x through 5, SeaMonkey 2.x before 2.3, and possibly other products does not remove proxy-authorization credentials from the listed request headers, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading a report, related to incorrect host resolution that occurs with certain redirects.

Mozilla Firefox does not warn the user about HTTP elements on an HTTPS page when the HTTP elements are dynamically created by a delayed document.write, which allows remote attackers to supply unauthenticated content and conduct phishing attacks.

Mozilla Firefox allows for cookies to be set with a null domain (aka "domainless cookies"), which allows remote attackers to pass information between arbitrary domains and track user activity, as demonstrated by the domain attribute in the document.cookie variable in a javascript: window.

Mozilla Firefox before 46.0 on Android before 5.0 allows attackers to bypass intended Signature access requirements via a crafted application that leverages content-provider permissions, as demonstrated by reading the browser history or a saved password.

The Math.random function in the JavaScript implementation in Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.10 and 3.6.x before 3.6.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.5, uses a random number generator that is seeded only once per browser session, which makes it easier for remote attackers to track a user, or trick a user into acting upon a spoofed pop-up message, by calculating the seed value, related to a "temporary footprint" and an "in-session phishing attack."
