Firefox 1.0 allows remote attackers to modify Boolean configuration parameters
for the about:config site by using a plugin such as Flash, and the -moz-opacity
filter, to display the about:config site then cause the user to double-click at
a certain screen position.

This is an issue since flash will install itself with very little user input.
