Mozilla Firefox is a cross-platform web browser from Mozilla. SeaMonkey is a free, cross-platform Internet suite.

Jesse Ruderman and Petko D. Petkov reported that the jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox and Seamonkey does not properly check MIME types (CVE-2007-5947). Gregory Fleischer reported that the window.location property can be used to generate a fake HTTP Referer (CVE-2007-5960). Multiple memory errors have also been reported (CVE-2007-5959).

A remote attacker could possibly exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the browser and conduct Cross-Site-Scripting or Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks.

There is no known workaround at this time.
