The installed version of Firefox is earlier than 3.0.16. Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

  • Multiple crashes can result in arbitrary code execution.
    (MFSA 2009-65)

  • The NTLM implementation is vulnerable to reflection attacks in which NTLM credentials from one application can be forwarded to another application. (MFSA 2009-68)

  • Multiple location bar spoofing vulnerabilities exist. (MFSA 2009-69)

  • A content window which is opened by a chrome window retains a reference to the chrome window via the ‘window.opener’ property, which can lead to privilege escalation. (MFSA 2009-70)

  • The exception messages generated by the ‘GeckoActiveXObject’ differ based on whether or not the requested COM object’s ProgID is present in the system registry. (MFSA 2009-71)
