Description
This module exploits a use-after-free vulnerability in Mozilla
Firefox 3.6.16. An OBJECT element, mChannel, can be freed via the
OnChannelRedirect method of the nsIChannelEventSink Interface. mChannel
becomes a dangling pointer and can be reused when setting the OBJECTs
data attribute. This module has been tested on Mac OS X 10.6.6, 10.6.7,
10.6.8, 10.7.2 and 10.7.3.
