Description

Firefox before 1.0 allows the user to store a (1) javascript: or (2) data: URLs as a Livefeed bookmark, then executes it in the security context of the currently loaded page when the user later accesses the bookmark, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Solution(s)

  • mozilla-firefox-upgrade-1_0_0
  • mozilla-firefox-upgrade-latest

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
