Description Josh Bressers 2009-01-29 20:40:33 UTC
Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that a form input
control's type could be changed during the restoration of a closed tab. An
attacker could modify the input control's value to contain the path of a
sensitive local file. If the tab was then closed, upon restoring the tab
the attacker could then use this vulnerability to change the input type to
file and submit the form, stealing the user's local file.
