Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.12, Thunderbird before 2.0.0.12, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.8 allows remote attackers to execute script outside of the sandbox and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via multiple vectors including the XMLDocument.load function, aka "JavaScript privilege escalation bugs."

Mozilla Firefox versiones anteriores a 2.0.0.12, Thunderbird versiones anteriores a 2.0.0.12, y SeaMonkey versiones anteriores a 1.1.8, permiten a atacantes remotos ejecutar scripts fuera de la caja de arena (sandbox) y realizar ataques de secuencias de comandos en sitios cruzados (XSS) a través de múltiples vectores incluyendo la función XMLDocument.load, también conocidos como "bugs de escalado de privilegios en JavaScript".<
