Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox 3 before 3.0.11 associates an incorrect principal with a file: URL loaded through the location bar, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and read files via a crafted HTML document, aka a "file-URL-to-file-URL scripting" attack.

Mozilla Firefox v3 anteriores a v3.0.11 asocia incorrectamente un principal con un fichero: URL cargada a través de la barra de direcciones, lo que permite a atacantes remotos con la colaboración del usuario evitar la restricciones de acceso previstas y leer ficheros a través de un documento HTML manipulado, también conocido como ataque de "secuencia de comandos fichero-URL-a-fichero-URL".
