Mozilla Firefox 3.0.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(infinite loop, application hang, and memory consumption) via a KEYGEN
element in conjunction with (1) a META element specifying automatic page
refresh or (2) a JavaScript onLoad event handler for a BODY element. NOTE:
it was later reported that earlier versions are also affected.

jdstrand | CVEs in Firefox are tracked in the xulrunner source packages. The mapping of xulrunner sources to firefox is: xulrunner (1.8.0): firefox (1.5) - Ubuntu 6.06 LTS xulrunner (1.8.1): firefox (2.0) - Ubuntu 6.10 - 8.04 LTS xulrunner-1.9: firefox-3.0 xulrunner-1.9.1: firefox-3.5 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS and 10.04 LTS uses the embedded xulrunner and not the system xulrunner-1.9.2, so it is tracked in the firefox source package. infinite loop via javascript onLoad. Assigning negligible for now as the same could be achieved by visiting any malicious website |
