Argument injection vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer, when running on systems with Firefox installed and certain URIs registered, allows remote attackers to conduct cross-browser scripting attacks and execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a (1) FirefoxURL or (2) FirefoxHTML URI, which are inserted into the command line that is created when invoking firefox.exe. NOTE: it has been debated as to whether the issue is in Internet Explorer or Firefox. As of 20070711, it is CVE's opinion that IE appears to be failing to properly delimit the URL argument when invoking Firefox, and this issue could arise with other protocol handlers in IE as well. However, Mozilla has stated that it will address the issue with a "defense in depth" fix that will "prevent IE from sending Firefox malicious data."
The focus handling for the onkeydown event in Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.12, 2.0.0.4 and other versions before 2.0.0.8, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.5 allows remote attackers to change field focus and copy keystrokes via the "for" attribute in a label, which bypasses the focus prevention, as demonstrated by changing focus from a textarea to a file upload field.
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.5, when run on Windows, allows remote attackers to bypass file type checks and possibly execute programs via a (1) file:/// or (2) resource: URI with a dangerous extension, followed by a NULL byte (%00) and a safer extension, which causes Firefox to treat the requested file differently than Windows would.
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.5 does not prevent use of document.write to replace an IFRAME (1) during the load stage or (2) in the case of an about:blank frame, which allows remote attackers to display arbitrary HTML or execute certain JavaScript code, as demonstrated by code that intercepts keystroke values from window.event, aka the "promiscuous IFRAME access bug," a related issue to CVE-2006-4568.
Directory traversal vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.4 and earlier on Mac OS X and Unix allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via ..%2F (dot dot encoded slash) sequences in a resource:// URI.
Mozilla Firefox 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12 and 2.x before 2.0.0.4, and SeaMonkey 1.0.9 and 1.1.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via (1) a large cookie path parameter, which triggers memory consumption, or (2) an internal delimiter within cookie path or name values, which could trigger a misinterpretation of cookie data, aka "Path Abuse in Cookies."
Multiple vulnerabilities in the layout engine for Mozilla Firefox 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12 and 2.x before 2.0.0.4, Thunderbird 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12 and 2.x before 2.0.0.4, and SeaMonkey 1.0.9 and 1.1.2 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to dangling pointers, heap corruption, signed/unsigned, and other issues.
Multiple vulnerabilities in the JavaScript engine for Mozilla Firefox 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12 and 2.x before 2.0.0.4, Thunderbird 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12 and 2.x before 2.0.0.4, and SeaMonkey 1.0.9 and 1.1.2 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors that trigger memory corruption.
The form autocomplete feature in Mozilla Firefox 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12, 2.x before 2.0.0.4, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (persistent temporary CPU consumption) via a large number of characters in a submitted form.
Mozilla Firefox 1.5.x before 1.5.0.12 and 2.x before 2.0.0.4, and SeaMonkey 1.0.9 and 1.1.2, allows remote attackers to bypass the same-origin policy and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) and other attacks by using the addEventListener method to add an event listener for a site, which is executed in the context of that site.
