Description Josh Bressers 2006-06-02 19:14:58 UTC
Text taken from the CVE id:

Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird before 1.5.0.4 allow remote attackers
to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary
code via (1) nested <option> tags in a select tag, (2) a
DOMNodeRemoved mutation event, (3) "Content-implemented tree views,"
(4) BoxObjects, (5) the XBL implementation, (6) an iframe that
attempts to remove itself, which leads to memory corruption.

This is a dupe of bug #193906, yeah? (Technically that one was filed an hour
later, but contains more information, unless I'm overlooking something.)



Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2006-06-14 15:49:53 UTC
(Well, except this one is for RHEL4.)

Comment 3 Josh Bressers 2006-07-12 14:55:31 UTC
CVE-2006-2780
Integer overflow in Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird before 1.5.0.4 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary
code via "jsstr tagify," which leads to memory corruption.
