Description Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2011-02-04 09:42:06 UTC
Mozilla security developer Roberto Suggi Liverani reported 
that ParanoidFragmentSink, a class used to sanitize potentially 
unsafe HTML for display, allows javascript: URLs and other 
inline JavaScript when the embedding document is a chrome document. 

While there are no unsafe uses of this class in any released products, 
extension code could have potentially used it in an unsafe manner.
