Description

The jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 retrieves the inner URL regardless of its MIME type, and considers HTML documents within a jar archive to have the same origin as the inner URL, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a jar: URI.

Affected configurations

• mozilla firefox (<= 2.0.0.9) • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.1 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.2 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.3 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.4 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.5 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.6 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.7 • mozilla firefox 2.0.0.8 • mozilla seamonkey (<= 1.1.6) • mozilla seamonkey 1.1.1 • mozilla seamonkey 1.1.2 • mozilla seamonkey 1.1.3 • mozilla seamonkey 1.1.4 • mozilla seamonkey 1.1.5
