Summary

Mozilla Firefox before 15.0, Thunderbird before 15.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.12 do not prevent use of the Object.defineProperty method to shadow the location object (aka window.location), which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors involving a plugin.

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • 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.
  • Embedding Scripts in Non-Script Elements
    This attack is a form of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) where malicious scripts are embedded in elements that are not expected to host scripts such as image tags (<img>), comments in XML documents (< !-CDATA->), etc. These tags may not be subject to the same input validation, output validation, and other content filtering and checking routines, so this can create an opportunity for an attacker to tunnel through the application's elements and launch a XSS attack through other elements. As with all remote attacks, it is important to differentiate the ability to launch an attack (such as probing an internal network for unpatched servers) and the ability of the remote attacker to collect and interpret the output of said attack.
  • Embedding Scripts within Scripts
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities that are brought on by allowing remote hosts to execute scripts. The attacker leverages this capability to execute scripts to execute his/her own script by embedding it within other scripts that the target software is likely to execute. The attacker must have the ability to inject script into script that is likely to be executed. If this is done, then the attacker can potentially launch a variety of probes and attacks against the web server's local environment, in many cases the so-called DMZ, back end resources the web server can communicate with, and other hosts. With the proliferation of intermediaries, such as Web App Firewalls, network devices, and even printers having JVMs and Web servers, there are many locales where an attacker can inject malicious scripts. Since this attack pattern defines scripts within scripts, there are likely privileges to execute said attack on the host. Of course, these attacks are not solely limited to the server side, client side scripts like Ajax and client side JavaScript can contain malicious scripts as well. In general all that is required is for there to be sufficient privileges to execute a script, but not protected against writing.
  • Cross-Site Scripting in Error Pages
    An attacker distributes a link (or possibly some other query structure) with a request to a third party web server that is malformed and also contains a block of exploit code in order to have the exploit become live code in the resulting error page. When the third party web server receives the crafted request and notes the error it then creates an error message that echoes the malformed message, including the exploit. Doing this converts the exploit portion of the message into to valid language elements that are executed by the viewing browser. When a victim executes the query provided by the attacker the infected error message error message is returned including the exploit code which then runs in the victim's browser. XSS can result in execution of code as well as data leakage (e.g. session cookies can be sent to the attacker). This type of attack is especially dangerous since the exploit appears to come from the third party web server, who the victim may trust and hence be more vulnerable to deception.
  • Cross-Site Scripting Using Alternate Syntax
    The attacker uses alternate forms of keywords or commands that result in the same action as the primary form but which may not be caught by filters. For example, many keywords are processed in a case insensitive manner. If the site's web filtering algorithm does not convert all tags into a consistent case before the comparison with forbidden keywords it is possible to bypass filters (e.g., incomplete black lists) by using an alternate case structure. For example, the "script" tag using the alternate forms of "Script" or "ScRiPt" may bypass filters where "script" is the only form tested. Other variants using different syntax representations are also possible as well as using pollution meta-characters or entities that are eventually ignored by the rendering engine. The attack can result in the execution of otherwise prohibited functionality.

    descriptionSecurity issues were identified and fixed in mozilla thunderbird : Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs 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 (CVE-2012-1971). In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products (CVE-2012-1970). Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno) of Google Chrome Security Team discovered a series of use-after-free issues using the Address Sanitizer tool. Many of these issues are potentially exploitable, allowing for remote code execution (CVE-2012-1972, CVE-2012-1973, CVE-2012-1974, CVE-2012-1975, CVE-2012-1976, CVE-2012-3956, CVE-2012-3957, CVE-2012-3958, CVE-2012-3959, CVE-2012-3960, CVE-2012-3961, CVE-2012-3962, CVE-2012-3963, CVE-2012-3964). Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported that it is possible to shadow the location object using Object.defineProperty. This could be used to confuse the current location to plugins, allowing for possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks (CVE-2012-1956). Security researcher Frederic Hoguin reported two related issues with the decoding of bitmap (.BMP) format images embedded in icon (.ICO) format files. When processing a negative height header value for the bitmap image, a memory corruption can be induced, allowing an attacker to write random memory and cause a crash. This crash may be potentially exploitable (CVE-2012-3966). Security researcher miaubiz used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover two WebGL issues. The first issue is a use-after-free when WebGL shaders are called after being destroyed. The second issue exposes a problem with Mesa drivers on Linux, leading to a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2012-3968, CVE-2012-3967). Security researcher Arthur Gerkis used the Address Sanitizer tool to find two issues involving Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files. The first issue is a buffer overflow in Gecko

    Security researcher Arthur Gerkis used the Address Sanitizer tool to
    find two issues involving Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files. The
    first issue is a buffer overflow in Gecko's SVG filter code when the
    sum of two values is too large to be stored as a signed 32-bit
    integer, causing the function to write past the end of an array. The
    second issue is a use-after-free when an element with a
    requiredFeatures attribute is moved between documents. In that
    situation, the internal representation of the requiredFeatures value
    could be freed prematurely. Both issues are potentially exploitable
    (CVE-2012-3969, CVE-2012-3970).
    
    Using the Address Sanitizer tool, Mozilla security researcher
    Christoph Diehl discovered two memory corruption issues involving the
    Graphite 2 library used in Mozilla products. Both of these issues can
    cause a potentially exploitable crash. These problems were fixed in
    the Graphite 2 library, which has been updated for Mozilla products
    (CVE-2012-3971).
    
    Security research Nicolas Gregoire used the Address Sanitizer tool to
    discover an out-of-bounds read in the format-number feature of XSLT,
    which can cause inaccurate formatting of numbers and information
    leakage. This is not directly exploitable (CVE-2012-3972).
    
    Security researcher Masato Kinugawa reported that if a crafted
    executable is placed in the root partition on a Windows file system,
    the Firefox and Thunderbird installer will launch this program after a
    standard installation instead of Firefox or Thunderbird, running this
    program with the user's privileges (CVE-2012-3974).
    
    Security researcher vsemozhetbyt reported that when the DOMParser is
    used to parse text/html data in a Firefox extension, linked resources
    within this HTML data will be loaded. If the data being parsed in the
    extension is untrusted, it could lead to information leakage and can
    potentially be combined with other attacks to become exploitable
    (CVE-2012-3975).
    
    Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that certain
    security checks in the location object can be bypassed if chrome code
    is called content in a specific manner. This allowed for the loading
    of restricted content. This can be combined with other issues to
    become potentially exploitable (CVE-2012-3978).
    
    Security researcher Colby Russell discovered that eval in the web
    console can execute injected code with chrome privileges, leading to
    the running of malicious code in a privileged context. This allows for
    arbitrary code execution through a malicious web page if the web
    console is invoked by the user (CVE-2012-3980).
    
    The mozilla thunderbird packages has been upgraded to the latest
    version which is unaffected by these security flaws."

    descriptionMozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client. Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed content. Malicious content could cause Thunderbird to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-3982, CVE-2012-3988, CVE-2012-3990, CVE-2012-3995, CVE-2012-4179, CVE-2012-4180, CVE-2012-4181, CVE-2012-4182, CVE-2012-4183, CVE-2012-4185, CVE-2012-4186, CVE-2012-4187, CVE-2012-4188) Two flaws in Thunderbird could allow malicious content to bypass intended restrictions, possibly leading to information disclosure, or Thunderbird executing arbitrary code. Note that the information disclosure issue could possibly be combined with other flaws to achieve arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-3986, CVE-2012-3991) Multiple flaws were found in the location object implementation in Thunderbird. Malicious content could be used to perform cross-site scripting attacks, script injection, or spoofing attacks. (CVE-2012-1956, CVE-2012-3992, CVE-2012-3994) Two flaws were found in the way Chrome Object Wrappers were implemented. Malicious content could be used to perform cross-site scripting attacks or cause Thunderbird to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3993, CVE-2012-4184) Note: None of the issues in this advisory can be exploited by a specially crafted HTML mail message as JavaScript is disabled by default for mail messages. They could be exploited another way in Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the full remote content of an RSS feed. After installing the update, Thunderbird must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

    descriptionMozillaFirefox was updated to 10.0.7ESR release, fixing a lot of bugs and security problems. The following security issues have been addressed : - Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs 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 2012-57) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, Steve Fink, Bob Clary, Andrew Sutherland, and Jason Smith reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox 14. (CVE-2012-1971) - Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, John Schoenick, Vladimir Vukicevic and Daniel Holbert reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox ESR 10 and Firefox 14. (CVE-2012-1970) - Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno) of Google Chrome Security Team discovered a series of use-after-free issues using the Address Sanitizer tool. Many of these issues are potentially exploitable, allowing for remote code execution.

Once about:newtab is loaded, the special context can potentially be used to escalate privilege, allowing for arbitrary code execution on the local system in a maliciously crafted attack.

Note: None of the issues in this advisory can be exploited by a specially crafted HTML mail message as JavaScript is disabled by default for mail messages. They could be exploited another way in Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the full remote content of an RSS feed. All Thunderbird users should upgrade to this updated package, which contains Thunderbird version 10.0.8 ESR, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Thunderbird must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

    descriptionMozilla Firefox was updated to 10.0.7ESR release, fixing a lot of bugs and security problems. The following security issues have been addressed : - Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs 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 2012-57) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, Steve Fink, Bob Clary, Andrew Sutherland, and Jason Smith reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox 14. (CVE-2012-1971) - Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, John Schoenick, Vladimir Vukicevic and Daniel Holbert reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox ESR 10 and Firefox 14. (CVE-2012-1970) - Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno) of Google Chrome Security Team discovered a series of use-after-free issues using the Address Sanitizer tool. Many of these issues are potentially exploitable, allowing for remote code execution. (MFSA 2012-58) - Heap-use-after-free in nsHTMLEditor::CollapseAdjacentTextNodes.

(CVE-2012-3964) - Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported that it is possible to shadow the location object using Object.defineProperty. This could be used to confuse the current location to plugins, allowing for possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. (MFSA 2012-59 / CVE-2012-1956) - Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported that when a page opens a new tab, a subsequent window can then be opened that can be navigated to about:newtab, a chrome privileged page. Once about:newtab is loaded, the special context can potentially be used to escalate privilege, allowing for arbitrary code execution on the local system in a maliciously crafted attack.

This crash may be potentially exploitable (CVE-2012-3966). Security researcher miaubiz used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover two WebGL issues. The first issue is a use-after-free when WebGL shaders are called after being destroyed. The second issue exposes a problem with Mesa drivers on Linux, leading to a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2012-3968, CVE-2012-3967).

    titleopenSUSE Security Update : MozillaFirefox (openSUSE-SU-2012:1064-1)
  • NASL familyRed Hat Local Security Checks
    NASL idREDHAT-RHSA-2012-1350.NASL
    descriptionUpdated firefox packages that fix several security issues and one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser. XULRunner provides the XUL Runtime environment for Mozilla Firefox. 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-2012-3982, CVE-2012-3988, CVE-2012-3990, CVE-2012-3995, CVE-2012-4179, CVE-2012-4180, CVE-2012-4181, CVE-2012-4182, CVE-2012-4183, CVE-2012-4185, CVE-2012-4186, CVE-2012-4187, CVE-2012-4188) Two flaws in Firefox could allow a malicious website to bypass intended restrictions, possibly leading to information disclosure, or Firefox executing arbitrary code. Note that the information disclosure issue could possibly be combined with other flaws to achieve arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-3986, CVE-2012-3991) Multiple flaws were found in the location object implementation in Firefox. Malicious content could be used to perform cross-site scripting attacks, script injection, or spoofing attacks. (CVE-2012-1956, CVE-2012-3992, CVE-2012-3994) Two flaws were found in the way Chrome Object Wrappers were implemented. Malicious content could be used to perform cross-site scripting attacks or cause Firefox to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3993, CVE-2012-4184) For technical details regarding these flaws, refer to the Mozilla security advisories for Firefox 10.0.8 ESR. You can find a link to the Mozilla advisories in the References section of this erratum. Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, Soroush Dalili, miaubiz, Abhishek Arya, Atte Kettunen, Johnny Stenback, Alice White, moz_bug_r_a4, and Mariusz Mlynski as the original reporters of these issues. This update also fixes the following bug : * In certain environments, storing personal Firefox configuration files (~/.mozilla/) on an NFS share, such as when your home directory is on a NFS share, led to Firefox functioning incorrectly, for example, navigation buttons not working as expected, and bookmarks not saving. This update adds a new configuration option, storage.nfs_filesystem, that can be used to resolve this issue. If you experience this issue : 1) Start Firefox. 2) Type

descriptionMozilla Firefox before 15.0, Thunderbird before 15.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.12 do not prevent use of the Object.defineProperty method to shadow the location object (aka window.location), which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors involving a plugin.
