Description Josh Bressers 2010-07-16 19:45:58 UTC

Security researcher Jordi Chancel reported that the location bar could be
spoofed to look like a secure page when the current document was served via
plaintext. The vulnerability is triggered by a server by first redirecting
a request for a plaintext resource to another resource behind a valid
SSL/TLS certificate. A second request made to the original plaintext
resource which is responded to not with a redirect but with JavaScript
containing history.back() and history.forward() will result in the
plaintext resource being displayed with valid SSL/TLS badging in the
location bar.
