When the text of a specially formatted URL is dragged to the addressbar from page content, the displayed URL can be spoofed to show a different site than the one loaded. This allows for phishing attacks where a malicious page can spoof the identify of another site. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 58.
The jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 retrieves the inner URL regardless of its MIME type, and considers HTML documents within a jar archive to have the same origin as the inner URL, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a jar: URI.
The jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 does not update the origin domain when retrieving the inner URL parameter yields an HTTP redirect, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a jar: URI, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-5947.
Unsanitized output in the browser UI leaves HTML tags in place and can result in arbitrary code execution in Firefox before version 58.0.1.
The JSON Viewer displays clickable hyperlinks for strings that are parseable as URLs, including "javascript:" links. If a JSON file contains malicious JavaScript script embedded as "javascript:" links, users may be tricked into clicking and running this code in the context of the JSON Viewer. This can allow for the theft of cookies and authorization tokens which are accessible to that context. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 60.
The web console and JavaScript debugger do not sanitize all output that can be hyperlinked. Both will display "chrome:" links as active, clickable hyperlinks in their output. Web sites should not be able to directly link to internal chrome pages. Additionally, the JavaScript debugger will display "javascript:" links, which users could be tricked into clicking by malicious sites. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 60.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Mozilla Firefox 4.x through 9.0, Thunderbird 5.0 through 9.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.7 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a (1) web page or (2) Firefox extension, related to improper enforcement of XPConnect security restrictions for frame scripts that call untrusted objects.

When proxy auto-detection is enabled, if a web server serves a Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file or if a PAC file is loaded locally, this PAC file can specify that requests to the localhost are to be sent through the proxy to another server. This behavior is disallowed by default when a proxy is manually configured, but when enabled could allow for attacks on services and tools that bind to the localhost for networked behavior if they are accessed through browsing. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 65.
Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird 1.x before 1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, Mozilla Suite before 1.7.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.0 returns the Object class prototype instead of the global window object when (1) .valueOf.call or (2) .valueOf.apply are called without any arguments, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.7 and SeaMonkey before 1.0.5 allows remote attackers to bypass the security model and inject content into the sub-frame of another site via targetWindow.frames[n].document.open(), which facilitates spoofing and other attacks.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.4 allows user-assisted remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML by tricking a user into (1) performing a "View Image" on a broken image in which the SRC attribute contains a Javascript URL, or (2) selecting "Show only this frame" on a frame whose SRC attribute contains a Javascript URL.
Mozilla Firefox 1.x before 1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, Mozilla Suite before 1.7.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary Javascript into other sites by (1) "using a modal alert to suspend an event handler while a new page is being loaded", (2) using eval(), and using certain variants involving (3) "new Script;" and (4) using window.__proto__ to extend eval, aka "cross-site JavaScript injection".
Opening Javascript links in a new tab via long-press in the Firefox iOS client could result in a malicious script spoofing the URL of the new tab. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox for iOS 134.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Mozilla 1.7.12 and possibly earlier, Mozilla Firefox 1.0.7 and possibly earlier, and Netscape 8.1 and possibly earlier, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the -moz-binding (Cascading Style Sheets) CSS property, which does not require that the style sheet have the same origin as the web page, as demonstrated by the compromise of a large number of LiveJournal accounts.
A vulnerability where a WebExtension can run content scripts in disallowed contexts following navigation or other events. This allows for potential privilege escalation by the WebExtension on sites where content scripts should not be run. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 60.3 and Firefox < 63.
Mozilla before 1.7.6, and Firefox before 1.0.1, allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary web sites by injecting content from one window into a target window whose name is known but resides in a different domain, as demonstrated using a pop-up window on a trusted web site, aka the "window injection" vulnerability.
By using the reflected URL in some special resource URIs, such as chrome:, it is possible to inject stylesheets and bypass Content Security Policy (CSP). This vulnerability affects Firefox < 63.
When a new protocol handler is registered, the API accepts a title argument which can be used to mislead users about which domain is registering the new protocol. This may result in the user approving a protocol handler that they otherwise would not have. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 63.

If upgrade-insecure-requests was specified in the Content Security Policy, and a link was dragged and dropped from that page, the link was not upgraded to https. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 70.
A "data:" URL loaded in a new tab did not inherit the Content Security Policy (CSP) of the original page, allowing for bypasses of the policy including the execution of JavaScript. In prior versions when "data:" documents also inherited the context of the original page this would allow for potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 57.
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.
JavaScript can be injected into an exported bookmarks file by placing JavaScript code into user-supplied tags in saved bookmarks. If the resulting exported HTML file is later opened in a browser this JavaScript will be executed. This could be used in social engineering and self-cross-site-scripting (self-XSS) attacks if users were convinced to add malicious tags to bookmarks, export them, and then open the resulting file. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 57.
Control characters prepended before "javascript:" URLs pasted in the addressbar can cause the leading characters to be ignored and the pasted JavaScript to be executed instead of being blocked. This could be used in social engineering and self-cross-site-scripting (self-XSS) attacks where users are convinced to copy and paste text into the addressbar. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 57.
