Description

The nsXMLHttpRequest::NotifyEventListeners method in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to bypass the same-origin policy and execute arbitrary script via multiple listeners, which bypass the inner window check.

Affected configurations

• mozilla firefox (>= 2.0 < 2.0.0.18) • mozilla firefox (>= 3.0 < 3.0.4) • mozilla seamonkey (>= 1.0 < 1.1.13) • mozilla thunderbird (>= 2.0 < 2.0.0.18) • debian debian linux 4.0 • canonical ubuntu linux 6.06 • canonical ubuntu linux 7.10 • canonical ubuntu linux 8.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 8.10
