Impact
     Mozilla contributors moz_bug_r_a4, Boris Zbarsky, 
     and Johnny Stenback reported a series of vulnerabilities 
     which allow scripts from page content to run with elevated
     privileges. moz_bug_r_a4 demonstrated additional variants
     of MFSA 2007-25 and MFSA2007-35 (arbitrary code execution
     through XPCNativeWrapper pollution). Additional 
     vulnerabilities reported separately by Boris Zbarsky, 
     Johnny Stenback, and moz_bug_r_a4 showed that the browser
     could be forced to run JavaScript code using the wrong 
     principal leading to universal XSS and arbitrary code execution.
     And more...";
