Mozilla security developer Daniel Veditz discovered that <iframe sandbox> restrictions are not applied to an <object> element contained within a sandboxed iframe. This could allow content hosted within a sandboxed iframe to use <object> element to bypass the sandbox restrictions that should be applied.
