Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.1, Thunderbird 1.5 if running Javascript in mail, and SeaMonkey before 1.0 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by changing an element's style from position:relative to position:static, which causes Gecko to operate on freed memory.

The remote Windows host is using SeaMonkey, an alternative web browser and application suite. 

The installed version of SeaMonkey contains various security issues, some of which can be exploited to execute arbitrary code on the affected host subject to the user's privileges.

The remote Windows host is using Firefox, an alternative web browser. 

The installed version of Firefox contains various security issues, some of which can be exploited to execute arbitrary code on the affected host subject to the user's privileges.

Versions of Mozilla Firefox prior to 1.5.0.1 are reported to be prone to a cross-domain scripting flaw.  An attacker exploiting this flaw would need to be able to convince a user to browse to a malicious URI.  Successful exploitation would result in the attacker executing malicious script code within the Firefox browser.  In addition, the remote browser is vulnerable to a memory corruption and authentication bypass flaw.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would be able to execute arbitrary code on the remote browser or gain access to critical functions. 

The remote host is running a vulnerable version of Mozilla Thunderbird mail client. This version of Thunderbird is vulnerable to a Man-in-the-middle (MITM) or sniffing vulnerability where an attacker can determine user credentials even when encryption is enabled.  To exploit this flaw, an attacker would need access to the local network. In addition, the client is vulnerable to a flaw where attackers can spoof attachment types.  An attacker exploiting this flaw would craft a malicious email and entice a user to open a seemingly innocuous attachment. 

The remote host is using SeaMonkey. The installed version of SeaMonkey contains various security issues, several of which are critical as they can be easily exploited to execute arbitrary shell code on the remote host.  The version of SeaMonkey is vulnerable to multiple denial of service attacks, overflows, information disclosure, privilege escalation, and other issues.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would need to be able to convince a user to browse to a malicious URI.

Versions of Mozilla Firefox prior to 1.7.13 are affected by various security issues, several of which are critical as they can be easily exploited to execute arbitrary shell code on the remote host. Additionally, these versions are affected by multiple denial of service attacks, overflows, information disclosure, privilege escalation, and other issues.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would need to be able to convince a Mozilla user to browse to a malicious URI. 

The remote host is running a vulnerable version of Mozilla Thunderbird mail client. This version of Thunderbird is vulnerable to multiple denial of service attacks, overflows, information disclosure, privilege escalation, and other issues.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would need to be able to convince a user to open or read a malicious email.  Successful exploitation would give the attacker the ability to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running Thunderbird. 

Versions of Mozilla Firefox prior to 1.5.0.2 or 1.0.8 are affected by various security issues, several of which are critical as they can be easily exploited to execute arbitrary shell code on the remote host.  The version of Firefox is vulnerable to multiple denial of service attacks, overflows, information disclosure, privilege escalation, and other issues.  An attacker  exploiting these flaws would need to be able to convince a Firefox user to browse to a malicious URI.

An attacker exploiting this flaw would craft a malicious email and entice a user to open a seemingly innocuous attachment.

The remote host is running an older version of the Firefox browser.  The installed version of Firefox is reported to be prone to a cross-domain scripting flaw.  An attacker exploiting this flaw would need to be able to convince a user to browse to a malicious URI.  Successful exploitation would result in the attacker executing malicious script code within the Firefox browser.  In addition, the remote browser is vulnerable to a memory corruption and authentication bypass flaw.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would be able to execute arbitrary code on the remote browser or gain access to critical functions.

The remote host is using Mozilla. The installed version of Mozilla contains various security issues, several of which are critical as they can be easily exploited to execute arbitrary shell code on the remote host.  The version of Mozilla is vulnerable to multiple denial of service attacks, overflows, information disclosure, privilege escalation, and other issues.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would need to be able to convince a Mozilla user to browse to a malicious URI.
