Description Josh Bressers 2009-10-21 18:43:24 UTC
Mozilla security researchers Jesse Ruderman and Sid Stamm reported that
when downloading a file containing a right-to-left override character (RTL)
in the filename, the name displayed in the dialog title bar conflicts with
the name of the file shown in the dialog body. An attacker could use this
vulnerability to obfuscate the name and file extension of a file to be
downloaded and opened, potentially causing a user to run an executable file
when they expected to open a non-executable file.
