Description Prasad Pandit 2015-09-23 17:39:37 UTC 
Security researcher André Bargull reported that when a web page creates a
scripted proxy for the window with a handler defined a certain way, a
reference to the inner window will be passed, rather than that of the outer
window in violation of the specification.
