Summary

Mozilla Firefox 1.x before 1.5.0.2 and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, Mozilla Suite before 1.7.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.1 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by (1) inserting the target filename into a text box, then turning that box into a file upload control, or (2) changing the type of the input control that is associated with an event handler. Fixed in: Firefox 1.5.0.2 Firefox 1.0.8 SeaMonkey 1.0.1 Mozilla Suite 1.7.13

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Server Side Include (SSI) Injection
    An attacker can use Server Side Include (SSI) Injection to send code to a web application that then gets executed by the web server. Doing so enables the attacker to achieve similar results to Cross Site Scripting, viz., arbitrary code execution and information disclosure, albeit on a more limited scale, since the SSI directives are nowhere near as powerful as a full-fledged scripting language. Nonetheless, the attacker can conveniently gain access to sensitive files, such as password files, and execute shell commands.
  • Cross Zone Scripting
    An attacker is able to cause a victim to load content into their web-browser that bypasses security zone controls and gain access to increased privileges to execute scripting code or other web objects such as unsigned ActiveX controls or applets. This is a privilege elevation attack targeted at zone-based web-browser security. In a zone-based model, pages belong to one of a set of zones corresponding to the level of privilege assigned to that page. Pages in an untrusted zone would have a lesser level of access to the system and/or be restricted in the types of executable content it was allowed to invoke. In a cross-zone scripting attack, a page that should be assigned to a less privileged zone is granted the privileges of a more trusted zone. This can be accomplished by exploiting bugs in the browser, exploiting incorrect configuration in the zone controls, through a cross-site scripting attack that causes the attackers' content to be treated as coming from a more trusted page, or by leveraging some piece of system functionality that is accessible from both the trusted and less trusted zone. This attack differs from "Restful Privilege Escalation" in that the latter correlates to the inadequate securing of RESTful access methods (such as HTTP DELETE) on the server, while cross-zone scripting attacks the concept of security zones as implemented by a browser.
  • Cross Site Scripting through Log Files
    An attacker may leverage a system weakness where logs are susceptible to log injection to insert scripts into the system's logs. If these logs are later viewed by an administrator through a thin administrative interface and the log data is not properly HTML encoded before being written to the page, the attackers' scripts stored in the log will be executed in the administrative interface with potentially serious consequences. This attack pattern is really a combination of two other attack patterns: log injection and stored cross site scripting.
  • Command Line Execution through SQL Injection
    An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.

      - CVE-2006-1741
        'shutdown' discovered that it is possible to inject
        arbitrary JavaScript code into a page on another site
        using a modal alert to suspend an event handler while a
        new page is being loaded. This could be used to steal
        confidential information. [MFSA-2006-09]
    
      - CVE-2006-1742
        Igor Bukanov discovered that the JavaScript engine does
        not properly handle temporary variables, which might
        allow remote attackers to trigger operations on freed
        memory and cause memory corruption. [MFSA-2006-10]
    
      - CVE-2006-1790
        A regression fix that could lead to memory corruption
        allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and

    "Web pages with extremely long titles caused subsequent launches of
    Firefox browser to hang for up to a few minutes, or caused Firefox to
    crash on computers with insufficient memory. (CVE-2005-4134)
    
    Igor Bukanov discovered that the JavaScript engine did not properly
    declare some temporary variables. Under some rare circumstances, a
    malicious website could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with
    the privileges of the user. (CVE-2006-0292, CVE-2006-1742)
    
    The function XULDocument.persist() did not sufficiently validate the
    names of attributes. An attacker could exploit this to inject
    arbitrary XML code into the file 'localstore.rdf', which is read and
    evaluated at startup. This could include JavaScript commands that
    would be run with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-0296)
    
    Due to a flaw in the HTML tag parser a specific sequence of HTML tags
    caused memory corruption. A malicious website could exploit this to
    crash the browser or even execute arbitrary code with the user's
    privileges. (CVE-2006-0749)
    
    Georgi Guninski discovered that embedded XBL scripts of websites could
    escalate their (normally reduced) privileges to get full privileges of
    the user if that page is viewed with 'Print Preview'. (CVE-2006-1727)
    
    The crypto.generateCRMFRequest() function had a flaw which could be
    exploited to run arbitrary code with the user's privileges.
    (CVE-2006-1728)
    
    Claus Jorgensen and Jesse Ruderman discovered that a text input box
    could be pre-filled with a filename and then turned into a file-upload
    control with the contents intact. A malicious website could exploit
    this to read any local file the user has read privileges for.
    (CVE-2006-1729)
    
    An integer overflow was detected in the handling of the CSS property
    'letter-spacing'. A malicious website could exploit this to run
    arbitrary code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-1730)
    
    The methods valueOf.call() and .valueOf.apply() returned an object
    whose privileges were not properly confined to those of the caller,
    which made them vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks. A
    malicious website could exploit this to modify the contents or steal
    confidential data (such as passwords) from other opened web pages.
    (CVE-2006-1731) The window.controllers array variable (CVE-2006-1732)
    and event handlers (CVE-2006-1741) were vulnerable to a similar
    attack. 
    
    The privileged built-in XBL bindings were not fully protected from web
    content and could be accessed by calling valueOf.call() and
    valueOf.apply() on a method of that binding. A malicious website could
    exploit this to run arbitrary JavaScript code with the user's
    privileges. (CVE-2006-1733)
    
    It was possible to use the Object.watch() method to access an internal
    function object (the 'clone parent'). A malicious website could
    exploit this to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with the user's
    privileges. (CVE-2006-1734)
    
    By calling the XBL.method.eval() method in a special way it was
    possible to create JavaScript functions that would get compiled with
    the wrong privileges. A malicious website could exploit this to
    execute arbitrary JavaScript code with the user's privileges.
    (CVE-2006-1735)
    
    Michael Krax discovered that by layering a transparent image link to
    an executable on top of a visible (and presumably desirable) image a
    malicious site could fool the user to right-click and choose 'Save
    image as...' from the context menu, which would download the
    executable instead of the image. (CVE-2006-1736)
    
    Several crashes have been fixed which could be triggered by websites
    and involve memory corruption. These could potentially be exploited to
    execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-1737,
    CVE-2006-1738, CVE-2006-1739, CVE-2006-1790)
    
    If the user has turned on the 'Entering secure site' modal warning
    dialog, it was possible to spoof the browser's secure-site indicators
    (the lock icon and the gold URL field background) by first loading the
    target secure site in a pop-up window, then changing its location to a
    different site, which retained the displayed secure-browsing
    indicators from the original site. (CVE-2006-1740).

A number of security issues have been fixed in the Mozilla browser suite and the Mozilla Firefox browser. These problems could be used by remote attackers to gain privileges, gain access to confidential information or to cause denial of service attacks. The updates of the Firefox packages bring it up to Firefox 1.0.8 fix level. The updates of the Mozilla suite bring it up to Mozilla 1.7.13 fix level. Mozilla Thunderbird is also affected by some of the listed issues, but updates will be provided later due to unrelated problems. Most of them can be worked around by turning Java Script in Mails off (which is the default for Thunderbird).
