Summary

The XPCVariant::VariantDataToJS function in the XPCOM implementation in Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x before 3.0.15 and 3.5.x before 3.5.4 does not enforce intended restrictions on interaction between chrome privileged code and objects obtained from remote web sites, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges via unspecified method calls, related to "doubly-wrapped objects."

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Accessing, Modifying or Executing Executable Files
    An attack of this type exploits a system's configuration that allows an attacker to either directly access an executable file, for example through shell access; or in a possible worst case allows an attacker to upload a file and then execute it. Web servers, ftp servers, and message oriented middleware systems which have many integration points are particularly vulnerable, because both the programmers and the administrators must be in synch regarding the interfaces and the correct privileges for each interface.
  • Leverage Executable Code in Non-Executable Files
    An attack of this type exploits a system's trust in configuration and resource files, when the executable loads the resource (such as an image file or configuration file) the attacker has modified the file to either execute malicious code directly or manipulate the target process (e.g. application server) to execute based on the malicious configuration parameters. Since systems are increasingly interrelated mashing up resources from local and remote sources the possibility of this attack occurring is high. The attack can be directed at a client system, such as causing buffer overrun through loading seemingly benign image files, as in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-028 where specially crafted JPEG files could cause a buffer overrun once loaded into the browser. Another example targets clients reading pdf files. In this case the attacker simply appends javascript to the end of a legitimate url for a pdf (http://www.gnucitizen.org/blog/danger-danger-danger/) http://path/to/pdf/file.pdf#whatever_name_you_want=javascript:your_code_here The client assumes that they are reading a pdf, but the attacker has modified the resource and loaded executable javascript into the client's browser process. The attack can also target server processes. The attacker edits the resource or configuration file, for example a web.xml file used to configure security permissions for a J2EE app server, adding role name "public" grants all users with the public role the ability to use the administration functionality. The server trusts its configuration file to be correct, but when they are manipulated, the attacker gains full control.
  • Blue Boxing
    This type of attack against older telephone switches and trunks has been around for decades. A tone is sent by an adversary to impersonate a supervisor signal which has the effect of rerouting or usurping command of the line. While the US infrastructure proper may not contain widespread vulnerabilities to this type of attack, many companies are connected globally through call centers and business process outsourcing. These international systems may be operated in countries which have not upgraded Telco infrastructure and so are vulnerable to Blue boxing. Blue boxing is a result of failure on the part of the system to enforce strong authorization for administrative functions. While the infrastructure is different than standard current applications like web applications, there are historical lessons to be learned to upgrade the access control for administrative functions.
  • Restful Privilege Elevation
    Rest uses standard HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permissions methods, but these are not necessarily correlated generally with back end programs. Strict interpretation of HTTP get methods means that these HTTP Get services should not be used to delete information on the server, but there is no access control mechanism to back up this logic. This means that unless the services are properly ACL'd and the application's service implementation are following these guidelines then an HTTP request can easily execute a delete or update on the server side. The attacker identifies a HTTP Get URL such as http://victimsite/updateOrder, which calls out to a program to update orders on a database or other resource. The URL is not idempotent so the request can be submitted multiple times by the attacker, additionally, the attacker may be able to exploit the URL published as a Get method that actually performs updates (instead of merely retrieving data). This may result in malicious or inadvertent altering of data on the server.
  • Target Programs with Elevated Privileges
    This attack targets programs running with elevated privileges. The attacker would try to leverage a bug in the running program and get arbitrary code to execute with elevated privileges. For instance an attacker would look for programs that write to the system directories or registry keys (such as HKLM, which stores a number of critical Windows environment variables). These programs are typically running with elevated privileges and have usually not been designed with security in mind. Such programs are excellent exploit targets because they yield lots of power when they break. The malicious user try to execute its code at the same level as a privileged system call.

    various bugs and security issues.
    
    The following security issues have been fixed :
    
      - Security researcher Paul Stone reported that a user's
        form history, both from web content as well as the smart
        location bar, was vulnerable to theft. A malicious web
        page could synthesize events such as mouse focus and key
        presses on behalf of the victim and trick the browser
        into auto-filling the form fields with history entries
        and then reading the entries. (MFSA 2009-52 /
        CVE-2009-3370)
    
      - Security researcher Jeremy Brown reported that the file
        naming scheme used for downloading a file which already
        exists in the downloads folder is predictable. If an
        attacker had local access to a victim's computer and
        knew the name of a file the victim intended to open
        through the Download Manager, he could use this
        vulnerability to place a malicious file in the
        world-writable directory used to save temporary
        downloaded files and cause the browser to choose the
        incorrect file when opening it. Since this attack
        requires local access to the victim's machine, the
        severity of this vulnerability was determined to be low.
        (MFSA 2009-53 / CVE-2009-3274)
    
      - Security researcher Orlando Berrera of Sec Theory
        reported that recursive creation of JavaScript
        web-workers can be used to create a set of objects whose
        memory could be freed prior to their use. These
        conditions often result in a crash which could
        potentially be used by an attacker to run arbitrary code
        on a victim's computer. (MFSA 2009-54 / CVE-2009-3371)
    
      - Security researcher Marco C. reported a flaw in the
        parsing of regular expressions used in Proxy
        Auto-configuration (PAC) files. In certain cases this
        flaw could be used by an attacker to crash a victim's
        browser and run arbitrary code on their computer. Since
        this vulnerability requires the victim to have PAC
        configured in their environment with specific regular
        expresssions which can trigger the crash, the severity
        of the issue was determined to be moderate. (MFSA
        2009-55 / CVE-2009-3372)
    
      - Security research firm iDefense reported that researcher
        regenrecht discovered a heap-based buffer overflow in
        Mozilla's GIF image parser. This vulnerability could
        potentially be used by an attacker to crash a victim's
        browser and run arbitrary code on their computer. (MFSA
        2009-56 / CVE-2009-3373)
    
      - Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that
        the XPCOM utility XPCVariant::VariantDataToJS unwrapped
        doubly-wrapped objects before returning them to chrome
        callers. This could result in chrome privileged code
        calling methods on an object which had previously been
        created or modified by web content, potentially
        executing malicious JavaScript code with chrome
        privileges. (MFSA 2009-57 / CVE-2009-3374)
    
      - Security researcher Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research
        reported a heap-based buffer overflow in Mozilla's
        string to floating point number conversion routines.
        Using this vulnerability an attacker could craft some
        malicious JavaScript code containing a very long string
        to be converted to a floating point number which would
        result in improper memory allocation and the execution
        of an arbitrary memory location. This vulnerability
        could thus be leveraged by the attacker to run arbitrary
        code on a victim's computer. (MFSA 2009-59 /
        CVE-2009-1563)
    
      - Security researcher Gregory Fleischer reported that text
        within a selection on a web page can be read by
        JavaScript in a different domain using the
        document.getSelection function, violating the
        same-origin policy. Since this vulnerability requires
        user interaction to exploit, its severity was determined
        to be moderate. (MFSA 2009-61 / CVE-2009-3375)
    
      - Mozilla security researchers Jesse Ruderman and Sid
        Stamm reported that when downloading a file containing a
        right-to-left override character (RTL) in the filename,
        the name displayed in the dialog title bar conflicts
        with the name of the file shown in the dialog body. An
        attacker could use this vulnerability to obfuscate the
        name and file extension of a file to be downloaded and
        opened, potentially causing a user to run an executable
        file when they expected to open a non-executable file.
        (MFSA 2009-62 / CVE-2009-3376)
    
      - Mozilla developers and community members identified and
        fixed several stability bugs in the browser engine used
        in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of
        these crashes showed evidence of memory corruption under
        certain circumstances and we presume that with enough
        effort at least some of these could be exploited to run
        arbitrary code. (MFSA 2009-64 / CVE-2009-3380 /

    descriptionUpdated firefox packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5. This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser. XULRunner provides the XUL Runtime environment for Mozilla Firefox. nspr provides the Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR). A flaw was found in the way Firefox handles form history. A malicious web page could steal saved form data by synthesizing input events, causing the browser to auto-fill form fields (which could then be read by an attacker). (CVE-2009-3370) A flaw was found in the way Firefox creates temporary file names for downloaded files. If a local attacker knows the name of a file Firefox is going to download, they can replace the contents of that file with arbitrary contents. (CVE-2009-3274) A flaw was found in the Firefox Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file processor. If Firefox loads a malicious PAC file, it could crash Firefox or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2009-3372) A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Firefox GIF image processor. A malicious GIF image could crash Firefox or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2009-3373) A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Firefox string to floating point conversion routines. A web page containing malicious JavaScript could crash Firefox or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2009-1563) A flaw was found in the way Firefox handles text selection. A malicious website may be able to read highlighted text in a different domain (e.g. another website the user is viewing), bypassing the same-origin policy. (CVE-2009-3375) A flaw was found in the way Firefox displays a right-to-left override character when downloading a file. In these cases, the name displayed in the title bar differs from the name displayed in the dialog body. An attacker could use this flaw to trick a user into downloading a file that has a file name or extension that differs from what the user expected. (CVE-2009-3376) Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2009-3374, CVE-2009-3380, CVE-2009-3382) For technical details regarding these flaws, refer to the Mozilla security advisories for Firefox 3.0.15. You can find a link to the Mozilla advisories in the References section of this errata. All Firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Firefox version 3.0.15, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

    descriptionUSN-853-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox and Xulrunner. The upstream changes introduced regressions that could lead to crashes when processing certain malformed GIF images, fonts and web pages. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Alin Rad Pop discovered a heap-based buffer overflow in Firefox when it converted strings to floating point numbers. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2009-1563) Jeremy Brown discovered that the Firefox Download Manager was vulnerable to symlink attacks. A local attacker could exploit this to create or overwrite files with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2009-3274) Paul Stone discovered a flaw in the Firefox form history. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could access this data to steal confidential information. (CVE-2009-3370) Orlando Berrera discovered that Firefox did not properly free memory when using web-workers. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. This issue only affected Ubuntu 9.10. (CVE-2009-3371) A flaw was discovered in the way Firefox processed Proxy Auto-configuration (PAC) files.
