Mozilla Products 'Firefox Recovery Key.html' Information Disclosure Vulnerability (MAC OS X). The flaw allows local users to read a Firefox Sync key via standard filesystem operations, potentially leading to sensitive information exposure. It affects Mozilla Firefox versions 4.x through 9.0 and SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.7. Upgrading to Mozilla Firefox version 10.0 or later, or SeaMonkey version 2.7 or later is recommended to mitigate this vulnerability
