Note: 1.5.0.12-11 does not seem to crash.
Comment 3 Martin Stransky 2008-04-08 11:06:28 UTC 
It's caused by mozilla-403168.patch in our packages (it's a fix for
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=403168)

Firefox 3 is affected, too.
Comment 4 Martin Stransky 2008-04-08 14:05:05 UTC 
The exeption is raised by this line in connection.js script from salesforce.com:

this.connection.open("POST", this.url, async);

It fails in nsXMLHttpRequest::OpenRequest, at:

 rv = CheckInnerWindowCorrectness();

where fails the condition:

outer->GetCurrentInnerWindow() == win

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#0  nsXMLHttpRequest::CheckInnerWindowCorrectness (this=0x35ec560) at
nsXMLHttpRequest.h:164
164             return NS_ERROR_FAILURE;
(gdb) l
159           nsCOMPtr<nsPIDOMWindow> win = do_QueryReferent(mOwner);
160           NS_ENSURE_STATE(win);
161           NS_ASSERTION(win->IsInnerWindow(), "Should have inner window
here!\n");
162           nsPIDOMWindow* outer = win->GetOuterWindow();
163           if (!outer || outer->GetCurrentInnerWindow() != win) {

Comment 7 Martin Stransky 2008-05-06 06:53:46 UTC 
Closing as NOTABUG. Cross-windows XHR scripting has been disabled in latest
security update and is not supported in FF3.
