Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 relies on docshell type information instead of page principal information for Window.webidl access control, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with chrome privileges via certain content navigation that leverages the reachability of a privileged window with an unintended persistence of access to restricted internal methods.

Mozilla Firefox anterior a 37.0 depende de información del tipo docshell en lugar de información de la página principal para el control de acceso a Window.webidl, lo que podría permitir a atacantes remotos ejecutar código JavaScript arbitrario con privilegios chrome a través de cierta navegación de contenidos que aprovecha la posibilidad de alcanzar una ventana privilegiada con una persistencia de acceso no intencionada para restringir los métodos internos.
