Synopsis

- XBL bindings can be used to read data from other domains. (MFSA 2008-61)
- The feed preview still allows for JavaScript privilege escalation. (MFSA 2008-62)
- Sensitive data may be disclosed in an XHR response when an XMLHttpRequest is made to a same-origin resource, which 302 redirects to a resource in a different domain. (MFSA 2008-64)
- A website may be able to access a limited amount of data from a different domain by loading a same-domain JavaScript URL which redirects to an off-domain target resource containing data that is not parsable as JavaScript. (MFSA 2008-65)
- Errors arise when parsing URLs with leading whitespace and control characters. (MFSA 2008-66)
- An escaped null byte is ignored by the CSS parser and treated as if it was not present in the CSS input string. (MFSA 2008-67)
- XSS and JavaScript privilege escalation are possible. (MFSA 2008-68)
- XSS vulnerabilities in SessionStore may allow for violating the browser's same-origin policy and performing an XSS attack or running arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges. (MFSA 2008-69)
