The "mozAddonManager" allows for the installation of extensions from the CDN for addons.mozilla.org, a publicly accessible site. This could allow malicious extensions to install additional extensions from the CDN in combination with an XSS attack on Mozilla AMO sites. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 51.
If a page is loaded from an original site through a hyperlink and contains a redirect to a "data:text/html" URL, triggering a reload will run the reloaded "data:text/html" page with its origin set incorrectly. This allows for a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53.
Malicious sites can display a spoofed addressbar on a page when the existing location bar on the new page is scrolled out of view if an HTML editable page element is user selected. Note: This attack only affects Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are not affected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 53.
A mechanism to spoof the addressbar through the user interaction on the addressbar and the "onblur" event.

This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53.
Unspecified vulnerability in the session-restore feature in Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.5 and 2.x before 2.0.0.19 allows remote attackers to bypass the same origin policy, inject content into documents associated with other domains, and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via unknown vectors related to restoration of SessionStore data.
Mozilla Firefox before 28.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allow remote attackers to spoof the domain name in the WebRTC (1) camera or (2) microphone permission prompt by triggering navigation at a certain time during generation of this prompt.
When a malicious application installed on the user's device broadcast an Intent to Firefox for Android, arbitrary headers could have been specified, leading to attacks such as abusing ambient authority or session fixation. This was resolved by only allowing certain safe-listed headers. *Note: This issue only affected Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84.
When browsing a document hosted on an IP address, an attacker could insert certain characters to flip domain and path information in the address bar. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 77.
When a user downloaded a file in Firefox for Android, if a cookie is set, it would have been re-sent during a subsequent file download operation on the same domain, regardless of whether the original and subsequent request were in private and non-private browsing modes. *Note: This issue only affected Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83.
When a HTTPS pages was embedded in a HTTP page, and there was a service worker registered for the former, the service worker could have intercepted the request for the secure page despite the iframe not being a secure context due to the (insecure) framing. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84.
In some cases, removing HTML elements during sanitization would keep existing SVG event handlers and therefore lead to XSS. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5.
Firefox did not block execution of scripts with incorrect MIME types when the response was intercepted and cached through a ServiceWorker. This could lead to a cross-site script inclusion vulnerability, or a Content Security Policy bypass. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5.
It was possible to cause the browser to enter fullscreen mode without displaying the security UI; thus making it possible to attempt a phishing attack or otherwise confuse the user. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5.

Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 95.
When parsing internationalized domain names, high bits of the characters in the URLs were sometimes stripped, resulting in inconsistencies that could lead to user confusion or attacks such as phishing. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 94.
Thunderbird unexpectedly enabled JavaScript in the composition area. The JavaScript execution context was limited to this area and did not receive chrome-level privileges, but could be used as a stepping stone to further an attack with other vulnerabilities. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.4.0.
By misusing a race in our notification code, an attacker could have forcefully hidden the notification for pages that had received full screen and pointer lock access, which could have been used for spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.4.0, Firefox ESR < 91.4.0, and Firefox < 95.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Space function in Cybozu Garoon before 3.7.0, when Firefox is used, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.14, and other versions before 2.0.0.17, allows remote attackers to bypass cross-site scripting (XSS) protection mechanisms and conduct XSS attacks via HTML-escaped low surrogate characters that are ignored by the HTML parser, as demonstrated by a "jav�ascript" sequence, aka "HTML escaped low surrogates bug."
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in clickstream.js in Y! Toolbar plugin for FireFox 3.1.0.20130813024103 for Mac, and 2.5.9.2013418100420 for Windows, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL that is stored by the victim.
Firefox did not reset the address bar after the beforeunload dialog was shown if the user chose to remain on the page. This could have resulted in an incorrect URL being shown when used in conjunction with other unexpected browser behaviors. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 80.
A rogue webpage could override the injected WKUserScript used by the download feature, this exploit could result in the user downloading an unintended file. This vulnerability affects Firefox for iOS < 28.
Using object or embed tags, it was possible to frame other websites, even if they disallowed framing using the X-Frame-Options header. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 78 and Firefox < 78.0.2.
A unicode RTL order character in the downloaded file name can be used to change the file's name during the download UI flow to change the file extension. This vulnerability affects Firefox for iOS < 28.
When a link to an external protocol was clicked, a prompt was presented that allowed the user to choose what application to open it in. An attacker could induce that prompt to be associated with an origin they didn't control, resulting in a spoofing attack. This was fixed by changing external protocol prompts to be tab-modal while also ensuring they could not be incorrectly associated with a different origin. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.
Firefox sometimes ran the onload handler for SVG elements that the DOM sanitizer decided to remove, resulting in JavaScript being executed after pasting attacker-controlled data into a contenteditable element. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 81, Thunderbird < 78.3, and Firefox ESR < 78.3.
Mozilla Firefox before 26.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.23 do not properly consider the sandbox attribute of an IFRAME element during processing of a contained OBJECT element, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended sandbox restrictions via a crafted web site.
An iframe sandbox element with the allow-popups flag could be bypassed when using noopener links. This could have led to security issues for websites relying on sandbox configurations that allowed popups and hosted arbitrary content. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird < 78.1.
Given an installed malicious file picker application, an attacker was able to overwrite local files and thus overwrite Firefox settings (but not access the previous profile). *Note: This issue only affected Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.11.
The SELECT element implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 25.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.1, Thunderbird before 24.1, and SeaMonkey before 2.22 does not properly restrict the nature or placement of HTML within a dropdown menu, which allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar or conduct clickjacking attacks via vectors that trigger navigation off of a page containing this element.
By holding a reference to the eval() function from an about:blank window, a malicious webpage could have gained access to the InstallTrigger object which would allow them to prompt the user to install an extension. Combined with user confusion, this could result in an unintended or malicious extension being installed. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 80, Thunderbird < 78.2, Thunderbird < 68.12, Firefox ESR < 68.12, Firefox ESR < 78.2, and Firefox for Android < 80.

Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 does not require an HTTPS session for lightweight theme add-on installations, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass an intended user-confirmation requirement by deploying a crafted web site and conducting a DNS spoofing attack against a mozilla.org subdomain.
When performing add-on updates, certificate chains terminating in non-built-in-roots were rejected (even if they were legitimately added by an administrator.) This could have caused add-ons to become out-of-date silently without notification to the user. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.15 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.10 allow remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors involving (1) an event handler attached to an outer window, (2) a SCRIPT element in an unloaded document, or (3) the onreadystatechange handler in conjunction with an XMLHttpRequest.
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.15 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.10 do not properly escape HTML in file:// URLs in directory listings, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or have unspecified other impact via a crafted filename.
When constructing a permission prompt for WebRTC, a URI was supplied from the content process. This URI was untrusted, and could have been the URI of an origin that was previously granted permission; bypassing the prompt. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
IndexedDB should be cleared when leaving private browsing mode and it is not, the API for WKWebViewConfiguration was being used incorrectly and requires the private instance of this object be deleted when leaving private mode. This vulnerability affects Firefox for iOS < 27.
