CVE-2015-0798: Mozilla Firefox

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 2.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Reader mode feature in Mozilla Firefox before 37.0.1 on Android, and Desktop Firefox pre-release, does not properly handle privileged URLs, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with chrome privileges by leveraging the ability to bypass the Same Origin Policy.

Affected products

• Mozilla Firefox: up to and including 37.0
• Oracle Solaris: version 11.3 only
