Description Josh Bressers 2010-07-16 19:24:22 UTC 
Security researcher regenrecht reported via TippingPoint's Zero Day
Initiative an integer overflow vulnerability in the implementation of the
XUL <tree> element's selection attribute. When the size of a new selection
is sufficiently large the integer used in calculating the length of the
selection can overflow, resulting in a bogus range being marked selected.
When adjustSelection is then called on the bogus range the range is deleted
leaving dangling references to the ranges which could be used by an
attacker to call into deleted memory and run arbitrary code on a victim's
computer.
