The installed version of Firefox is earlier than 10.0.9 and thus, is potentially affected by the following security issues :

  • An unspecified error exists that can allow attackers to bypass the ‘Same Origin Policy’ and access the ‘Location’ object. (CVE-2012-4192)

  • An error exists related to ‘security wrappers’ and the function ‘defaultValue()’ that can allow cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2012-4193)
