CVE-2008-2808 – Firefox file location escaping flaw

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2008-2808

Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.15 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.10 do not properly escape HTML in file:// URLs in directory listings, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or have unspecified other impact via a crafted filename. Mozilla Firefox anterior a 2.0.0.15 y SeaMonkey anterior a 1.1.10 no escapan correctamente el HTML en listados de directorios file:// URLs, lo que permite a atacantes remotos llevar a cabo ataques de secuencias de comandos en sitios cruzados (XSS) o tener otros impactos no especificados mediante un nombre de archivo modificado. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2008-07/msg00004.html http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008-0616.html http://secunia.com/advisories/30878 http://secunia.com/advisories/30898 http://secunia.com/advisories/30903 http://secunia.com/advisories/30911 http://secunia.com/advisories/30949 http://secunia.com/advisories/31005 http://secunia.com/advisories/31008 http://secunia.com/advisories/31021 http://secunia.com/advisories/31023 http://secunia.com/advisories/3 • CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') •
