Descriptions

The InstallTrigger.install method in Firefox before 1.0.5 and Mozilla before 1.7.9 allows remote attackers to execute a callback function in the context of another domain by forcing a page navigation after the install method has been called, which causes the callback to be run in the context of the new page and results in a same origin violation.

Several problems have been discovered in Mozilla, the browser of the Mozilla suite. Since the usual praxis of backporting apparently does not work for this package, this update is basically version 1.7.10 with the version number rolled back, and hence still named 1.7.8.
