Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-09-22 10:34:02 UTC 
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2009-3274 to
the following vulnerability:

Mozilla Firefox 3.6a1, 3.5.2, and earlier 2.x and 3.x versions on
Linux uses a predictable /tmp pathname for files selected from the
Downloads window, which allows local users to replace an arbitrary
downloaded file by placing a file in a /tmp location before the
download occurs, possibly related to the Archive Manager component.
NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
