CVE-2010-3775: Mozilla Firefox

High severity, CVSS 9.3. EPSS: 3.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Mozilla Firefox before 3.5.16 and 3.6.x before 3.6.13, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.11, does not properly handle certain redirections involving data: URLs and Java LiveConnect scripts, which allows remote attackers to start processes, read arbitrary local files, and establish network connections via vectors involving a refresh value in the http-equiv attribute of a META element, which causes the wrong security principal to be used.

Affected products

• Mozilla Firefox: version 3.6 only; version 3.6.2 only; version 3.6.3 only; version 3.6.4 only; version 3.6.6 only; version 3.6.7 only; …
