Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.11, 3.0b2, and possibly earlier versions, when prompting for HTTP Basic Authentication, displays the site requesting the authentication after the Realm text, which might make it easier for remote HTTP servers to conduct phishing and spoofing attacks.

modules/libpr0n/decoders/bmp/nsBMPDecoder.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.12, Thunderbird before 2.0.0.12, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.8 does not properly perform certain calculations related to the mColors table, which allows remote attackers to read portions of memory uninitialized via a crafted 8-bit bitmap (BMP) file that triggers an out-of-bounds read within the heap, as demonstrated using a CANVAS element; or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted 8-bit bitmap file that triggers an out-of-bounds read. NOTE: the initial public reports stated that this affected Firefox in Ubuntu 6.06 through 7.10.

Video files loaded video captions cross-origin without checking for the presence of CORS headers permitting such cross-origin use, leading to potential information disclosure for video captions. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

A hardware vulnerability in GPU memory modules allows attackers to accelerate micro-architectural attacks through the use of the JavaScript WebGL API.

Mozilla Firefox before 1.8.0.13 and 1.8.1.x before 1.8.1.5 does not perform a security zone check when processing a wyciwyg URI, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, poison the browser cache, and possibly enable further attack vectors via (1) HTTP 302 redirect controls, (2) XMLHttpRequest, or (3) view-source URIs.

The TCP Socket API implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 mishandles array boundaries that were established with a navigator.mozTCPSocket.open method call and send method calls, which allows remote TCP servers to obtain sensitive information from process memory by reading packet data, as demonstrated by availability of this API in a Firefox OS application.

The FTP protocol implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.11 and 2.x before 2.0.0.3 allows remote attackers to force the client to connect to other servers, perform a proxied port scan, or obtain sensitive information by specifying an alternate server address in an FTP PASV response.

If web content on a page is dragged onto portions of the browser UI, such as the tab bar, links can be opened that otherwise would not be allowed to open. This can allow malicious web content to open a locally stored file through "file:" URLs. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 56.

A vulnerability where the security wrapper does not deny access to some exposed properties using the deprecated "_exposedProps_" mechanism on proxy objects. These properties should be explicitly unavailable to proxy objects. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 57.

When Private Browsing mode is used, it is possible for a web worker to write persistent data to IndexedDB and fingerprint a user uniquely. IndexedDB should not be available in Private Browsing mode and this stored data will persist across multiple private browsing mode sessions because it is not cleared when exiting. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 52.5.2 and Firefox < 57.0.1.

Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 do not impose certain ECMAScript 6 requirements on JavaScript object properties, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via the reviver parameter to the JSON.parse method.

The page cache feature in Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.10 and 2.x before 2.0.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.8 can generate hash collisions that cause page data to be appended to the wrong page cache, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or enable further attack vectors when the target page is reloaded from the cache.

The CheckLoadURI function in Mozilla Firefox 1.8 lists the about: URI as a ChromeProtocol and can be loaded via JavaScript, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by querying the browser's session history.

Android intent URLs given to Firefox for Android can be used to navigate from HTTP or HTTPS URLs to local "file:" URLs, allowing for the reading of local data through a violation of same-origin policy. Note: This attack only affects Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are not affected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 54.

The Mozilla Maintenance Service can be invoked by an unprivileged user to read 32 bytes of any arbitrary file on the local system by convincing the service that it is reading a status file provided by the Mozilla Windows Updater. The Mozilla Maintenance Service executes with privileged access, bypassing system protections against unprivileged users. Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 52.2 and Firefox < 54.

Same-origin policy protections can be bypassed on pages with embedded iframes during page reloads, allowing the iframes to access content on the top level page, leading to information disclosure. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.3, Firefox ESR < 52.3, and Firefox < 55.

A WebExtension can request access to local files without the warning prompt stating that the extension will "Access your data for all websites" being displayed to the user. This allows extensions to run content scripts in local pages without permission warnings when a local file is opened. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 60.3 and Firefox < 63.

In private browsing mode on Firefox for Android, favicons are cached in the cache/icons folder as they are in non-private mode. This allows information leakage of sites visited during private browsing sessions. *Note: this issue only affects Firefox for Android. Desktop versions of Firefox are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 63.

The PRNG implementation in the DNS resolver in Mozilla Firefox (aka Fennec) before 37.0 on Android does not properly generate random numbers for query ID values and UDP source ports, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof DNS responses by guessing these numbers, a related issue to CVE-2012-2808.

Mozilla Firefox before 35.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.32 do not properly initialize memory for BMP images, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted web page that triggers the rendering of malformed BMP data within a CANVAS element.

If a document's Referrer Policy attribute is set to "no-referrer" sometimes two network requests are made for "<link>" elements instead of one. One of these requests includes the referrer instead of respecting the set policy to not include a referrer on requests. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 57.

A content security policy (CSP) "frame-ancestors" directive containing origins with paths allows for comparisons against those paths instead of the origin. This results in a cross-origin information leak of this path information. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 55.

A mechanism to bypass file system access protections in the sandbox to use the file picker to access different files than those selected in the file picker through the use of relative paths. This allows for read only access to the local file system. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53.

The file picker dialog can choose and display the wrong local default directory when instantiated. On some operating systems, this can lead to information disclosure, such as the operating system or the local account name. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52 and Thunderbird < 52.

The Gecko Media Plugin sandbox allows access to local files that match specific regular expressions. On OS OX, this matching allows access to some data in subdirectories of "/private/var" that could expose personal or temporary data. This has been updated to not allow access to "/private/var" and its subdirectories. Note: this issue only affects OS X. Other operating systems are not affected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52 and Thunderbird < 52.

Data sent with in multipart channels, such as the multipart/x-mixed-replace MIME type, will ignore the referrer-policy response header, leading to potential information disclosure for sites using this header. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 51.

Mozilla Firefox before 28.0.1 on Android processes a file: URL by copying a local file onto the SD card, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from the Firefox profile directory via a crafted application.

Bugzilla 2.x through 4.0.x before 4.0.15, 4.1.x and 4.2.x before 4.2.11, 4.3.x and 4.4.x before 4.4.6, and 4.5.x before 4.5.6 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive private-comment information by leveraging a role as a flag recipient, related to Bug.pm, Flag.pm, and a mail template.

The SVG filter implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive displacement-correlation information, and possibly bypass the Same Origin Policy and read text from a different domain, via a timing attack involving feDisplacementMap elements, a related issue to CVE-2013-1693.

Mozilla Firefox before 27.0 on Android 4.2 and earlier creates system-log entries containing profile paths, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application.

Mozilla Firefox before 33.0 does not properly initialize memory for GIF images, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted web page that triggers a sequence of rendering operations for truncated GIF data within a CANVAS element.

A Content Provider in Firefox for Android allowed local files accessible by the browser to be read by a remote webpage, leading to sensitive data disclosure, including cookies for other origins. This vulnerability affects Firefox for < Android.

Feed preview for RSS feeds can be used to capture errors and exceptions generated by privileged content, allowing for the exposure of internal information not meant to be seen by web content. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 51.

Hashed codes of JavaScript objects are shared between pages. This allows for pointer leaks because an object's address can be discovered through hash codes, and also allows for data leakage of an object's content using these hash codes. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 45.7, Firefox ESR < 45.7, and Firefox < 51.

An attacker could read 32 bits of values spilled onto the stack in a JIT compiled function. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 137 and Thunderbird < 137.

The get_sos function in jdmarker.c in (1) libjpeg 6b and (2) libjpeg-turbo through 1.3.0, as used in Google Chrome before 31.0.1650.48, Ghostscript, and other products, does not check for certain duplications of component data during the reading of segments that follow Start Of Scan (SOS) JPEG markers, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized memory locations via a crafted JPEG image.

CSP violations generated links in the console tab of the developer tools, pointing to the violating resource. This caused a DNS prefetch which leaked that a CSP violation happened. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128 and Thunderbird < 128.

If a Thunderbird user quoted from an HTML email, for example by replying to the email, and the email contained either a VIDEO tag with the POSTER attribute or an OBJECT tag with a DATA attribute, a network request to the referenced remote URL was performed, regardless of a configuration to block remote content. An image loaded from the POSTER attribute was shown in the composer window. These issues could have given an attacker additional capabilities when targetting releases that did not yet have a fix for CVE-2022-3033 which was reported around three months ago. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.5.1.

Internal URLs are protected by a secret UUID key, which could have been leaked to web page through the Referrer header. This vulnerability affects Firefox for iOS < 102.

The WebGL implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 24.0, when NVIDIA graphics drivers are used on Mac OS X, allows remote attackers to obtain desktop-screenshot data by reading from a CANVAS element.

Securitypolicyviolation events could have leaked cross-origin information for frame-ancestors violations. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5.

An attacker could use a JavaScript Map/Set timing attack to determine whether an atom is used by another compartment/zone in specific contexts. This could be used to leak information, such as usernames embedded in JavaScript code, across websites. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 50.1, Firefox ESR < 45.6, and Thunderbird < 45.6.

Private browsing mode leaves metadata information, such as URLs, for sites visited in "browser.db" and "browser.db-wal" files within the Firefox profile after the mode is exited. Note: This issue only affects Firefox for Android. Other versions and operating systems are unaffected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 50.

The HTTPS protocol does not consider the role of the TCP congestion window in providing information about content length, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain cleartext data by leveraging a web-browser configuration in which third-party cookies are sent, aka a "HEIST" attack.
