Description

The XrayWrapper implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 29.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.26 allows user-assisted remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted web site that is visited in the debugger, leading to unwrapping operations and calls to DOM methods on the unwrapped objects.
