+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Maurycy Prodeus from isec.pl found a potentially exploitable buffer
+ overflow in the handling of NNTP URLs. Furthermore, Martin (from
+ ptraced.net) discovered that temporary files in recent versions of
+ Mozilla-based products were sometimes stored world-readable with
+ predictable names. The Mozilla Team also fixed a way of spoofing
+ filenames in Firefox's "What should Firefox do with this file" dialog
+ boxes and a potential information leak about the existence of local
+ filenames.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could craft a malicious NNTP link and entice a user
+ to click it, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code
+ with the rights of the user running the browser. A local attacker could
+ leverage the temporary file vulnerability to read the contents of
+ another user's attachments or downloads. A remote attacker could also
+ design a malicious web page that would allow to spoof filenames if the
+ user uses the "Open with..." function in Firefox, or retrieve
+ information on the presence of specific files in the local filesystem.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
