Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 42.0 on Android improperly restricts URL strings in intents, which allows attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors involving an intent: URL and fallback navigation, aka "Universal XSS (UXSS)."

Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a 42.0 en Android restringe indebidamente las cadenas URL en los intents, lo que permite a atacantes realizar ataques de cross-site scripting (XSS) a través de vectores involucrando un intent: URL y navegación de retorno, también conocida como 'Universal XSS (UXSS).'

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird, the worst of which may allow user-assisted execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 38.5.0 are affected.
