Summary

The WebChannel.jsm module in Mozilla Firefox before 38.0 allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain sensitive webchannel-response data via a crafted web site containing an IFRAME element referencing a different web site that is intended to read this data.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Subverting Environment Variable Values
    The attacker directly or indirectly modifies environment variables used by or controlling the target software. The attacker's goal is to cause the target software to deviate from its expected operation in a manner that benefits the attacker.
  • Footprinting
    An attacker engages in probing and exploration activity to identify constituents and properties of the target. Footprinting is a general term to describe a variety of information gathering techniques, often used by attackers in preparation for some attack. It consists of using tools to learn as much as possible about the composition, configuration, and security mechanisms of the targeted application, system or network. Information that might be collected during a footprinting effort could include open ports, applications and their versions, network topology, and similar information. While footprinting is not intended to be damaging (although certain activities, such as network scans, can sometimes cause disruptions to vulnerable applications inadvertently) it may often pave the way for more damaging attacks.
  • Exploiting Trust in Client (aka Make the Client Invisible)
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities in client/server communication channel authentication and data integrity. It leverages the implicit trust a server places in the client, or more importantly, that which the server believes is the client. An attacker executes this type of attack by placing themselves in the communication channel between client and server such that communication directly to the server is possible where the server believes it is communicating only with a valid client. There are numerous variations of this type of attack.
  • Browser Fingerprinting
    An attacker carefully crafts small snippets of Java Script to efficiently detect the type of browser the potential victim is using. Many web-based attacks need prior knowledge of the web browser including the version of browser to ensure successful exploitation of a vulnerability. Having this knowledge allows an attacker to target the victim with attacks that specifically exploit known or zero day weaknesses in the type and version of the browser used by the victim. Automating this process via Java Script as a part of the same delivery system used to exploit the browser is considered more efficient as the attacker can supply a browser fingerprinting method and integrate it with exploit code, all contained in Java Script and in response to the same web page request by the browser.
  • Session Credential Falsification through Prediction
    This attack targets predictable session ID in order to gain privileges. The attacker can predict the session ID used during a transaction to perform spoofing and session hijacking.

    descriptionThe version of Firefox installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 38.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities : - Multiple memory corruption issues exist within the browser engine. A remote attacker can exploit these to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2708, CVE-2015-2709) - A buffer overflow condition exists in SVGTextFrame.cpp when rendering SVG graphics that are combined with certain CSS properties due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2710) - A security bypass vulnerability exists due to the referrer policy not being enforced in certain situations when opening links (e.g. using the context menu or a middle-clicks by mouse). A remote attacker can exploit this to bypass intended policy settings. (CVE-2015-2711) - An out-of-bounds read and write issue exists in the CheckHeapLengthCondition() function due to improper JavaScript validation of heap lengths. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted web page, to disclose memory contents. (CVE-2015-2712) - A use-after-free error exists due to improper processing of text when vertical text is enabled. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory. (CVE-2015-2713) - A use-after-free error exists in the RegisterCurrentThread() function in nsThreadManager.cpp due to a race condition related to media decoder threads created during the shutdown process. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory. (CVE-2015-2715) - A buffer overflow condition exists in the XML_GetBuffer() function in xmlparse.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling compressed XML content. An attacker can exploit this to cause a buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2716) - An integer overflow condition exists in the parseChunk() function in MPEG4Extractor.cpp due to improper handling of MP4 video metadata in chunks. A remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted media content, to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2717) - A security bypass vulnerability exists in WebChannel.jsm due to improper handling of message traffic. An untrusted page hosting a trusted page within an iframe can intercept webchannel responses for the trusted page. This allows a remote attacker, via a specially crafted web page, to bypass origin restrictions, resulting in the disclosure of sensitive information. (CVE-2015-2718) - Multiple integer overflow conditions exist in the bundled libstagefright component due to improper validation of user-supplied input when processing MPEG4 sample metadata. A remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted media content, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4496)

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201605-06 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities) Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Firefox, NSS, NSPR, and Thunderbird. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details. Impact : A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web page or email, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able to perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks, obtain sensitive information, spoof the address bar, conduct clickjacking attacks, bypass security restrictions and protection mechanisms, or have other unspecified impacts. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time.

An attacker can exploit this to cause a buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2716) - An integer overflow condition exists in the parseChunk() function in MPEG4Extractor.cpp due to improper handling of MP4 video metadata in chunks. A remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted media content, to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2717) - A security bypass vulnerability exists in WebChannel.jsm due to improper handling of message traffic. An untrusted page hosting a trusted page within an iframe can intercept webchannel responses for the trusted page. This allows a remote attacker, via a specially crafted web page, to bypass origin restrictions, resulting in the disclosure of sensitive information. (CVE-2015-2718) - Multiple integer overflow conditions exist in the bundled libstagefright component due to improper validation of user-supplied input when processing MPEG4 sample metadata. A remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted media content, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4496)
