Descriptions

The update implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 38.0 on Windows does not ensure that the pathname for updater.exe corresponds to the application directory, which might allow local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse file.

La implementación de actualización en Mozilla Firefox anterior a 38.0 en Windows no asegura que el nombre de ruta para updater.exe corresponda con el directorio de la aplicación, lo que podría permitir a usuarios locales ganar privilegios a través de un fichero troyano.
