Description

Certain versions of Mozilla Firefox contain a flaw whereby arbitrary Javascript code can be executed in another domain if the user is tricked into selecting 'View Image' on a broken image, or by selecting 'Show only this frame' on an attacker-controlled frame. In such a situation, a remote attacker can launch a cross-site scripting attack against the local user.

Solution(s)

  • mozilla-firefox-upgrade-1_5_0_4
  • mozilla-firefox-upgrade-latest
