  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"Justin Schuh, Tom Cross and Peter Williams discovered errors in the
Firefox URL parsing routines. If a user were tricked into opening a
crafted hyperlink, an attacker could overflow a stack buffer and
execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2008-0016)

It was discovered that the same-origin check in Firefox could be
bypassed. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious website,
an attacker may be able to execute JavaScript in the context of a
different website. (CVE-2008-3835)

Several problems were discovered in the JavaScript engine. This
could allow an attacker to execute scripts from page content with
chrome privileges. (CVE-2008-3836)

Paul Nickerson discovered Firefox did not properly process mouse
click events. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web
page, an attacker could move the content window, which could
potentially be used to force a user to perform unintended drag and
drop operations. (CVE-2008-3837)

Several problems were discovered in the browser engine. This could
allow an attacker to execute code with chrome privileges.
(CVE-2008-4058, CVE-2008-4059, CVE-2008-4060)

Drew Yao, David Maciejak and other Mozilla developers found several
problems in the browser engine of Firefox. If a user were tricked
into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could cause a denial
of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges
of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2008-4061, CVE-2008-4062,
CVE-2008-4063, CVE-2008-4064)

Dave Reed discovered a flaw in the JavaScript parsing code when
processing certain BOM characters. An attacker could exploit this
to bypass script filters and perform cross-site scripting attacks.
(CVE-2008-4065)

Gareth Heyes discovered a flaw in the HTML parser of Firefox. If a
user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker
could bypass script filtering and perform cross-site scripting
attacks. (CVE-2008-4066)

Boris Zbarsky and Georgi Guninski independently discovered flaws in
the resource: protocol. An attacker could exploit this to perform
directory traversal, read information about the system, and prompt
the user to save information in a file. (CVE-2008-4067,
CVE-2008-4068)

Billy Hoffman discovered a problem in the XBM decoder. If a user were
tricked into opening a malicious web page or XBM file, an attacker
may be able to cause a denial of service via application crash.
