CVE Details

Release Date:	2007-07-18
Impact:	Moderate	What is this?

Description

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.5 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script into another site's context via a timing issue involving the (1) addEventListener or (2) setTimeout function, probably by setting events that activate after the context has changed. Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x before 3.0.18, 3.5.x before 3.5.8, and 3.6.x before 3.6.2; Thunderbird before 3.0.2; and SeaMonkey before 2.0.3 allow remote attackers to perform cross-origin keystroke capture, and possibly conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, by using the addEventListener and setTimeout functions in conjunction with a wrapped object. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-3736.
