[GLSA-200605-06] Mozilla Firefox: Potential remote code execution |
||
Mozilla Firefox: Potential remote code execution Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200605-06 (Mozilla Firefox: Potential remote code execution) Martijn Wargers and Nick Mott discovered a vulnerability when rendering malformed JavaScript content. The Mozilla Firefox 1.0 line is not affected. Impact If JavaScript is enabled, by tricking a user into visiting a malicious web page which would send a specially crafted HTML script that contains references to deleted objects with the "designMode" property enabled, a possible hacker can crash the web browser and in theory manage to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the browser. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
