Mozilla Firefox before 42.0, when NTLM v1 is enabled for HTTP authentication, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive hostname information by constructing a crafted web site that sends an NTLM request and reads the Workstation field of an NTLM type 3 message.
Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a 42.0, cuando NTLM v1 está habilitado para autenticación HTTP, permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible del hostname mediante la construcción de un sitio web manipulado que envía una petición NTLM y lee el campo Workstation de un mensaje NTLM tipo 3.
Christian Holler, David Major, Jesse Ruderman, Tyson Smith, Boris Zbarsky, Randell Jesup, Olli Pettay, Karl Tomlinson, Jeff Walden, Gary Kwong, Andrew McCreight, Georg Fritzsche, and Carsten Book discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. Various other issues were also addressed.
