Concurrency vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via multiple Javascript timed events that load a deeply nested XML file, followed by redirecting the browser to another page, which leads to a concurrency failure that causes structures to be freed incorrectly, as demonstrated by (1) ffoxdie and (2) ffoxdie3. NOTE: it has been reported that Netscape 8.1 and K-Meleon 1.0.1 are also affected by ffoxdie. Mozilla confirmed to CVE that ffoxdie and ffoxdie3 trigger the same underlying vulnerability. NOTE: it was later reported that Firefox 2.0 RC2 and 1.5.0.7 are also affected.

Simpliciti Locked Browser does not properly limit a user's actions to ones within the intended Internet Explorer environment, which allows local users to perform unauthorized actions by visiting a web site that executes a JavaScript window.blur loop to remove focus from the browser window, then pressing CTRL-SHIFT-ESC to invoke the Task Manager.

Interpretation conflict between Internet Explorer and other web browsers such as Mozilla, Opera, and Firefox might allow remote attackers to modify the visual presentation of web pages and possibly bypass protection mechanisms such as content filters via ASCII characters with the 8th bit set, which could be stripped by Internet Explorer to render legible text, but not when using other browsers. NOTE: there has been significant discussion about this issue, and as of 20060625, it is not clear where the responsibility for this issue lies, although it might be due to vagueness within the associated standards. NOTE: this might only be exploitable with certain encodings.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 SP4 and 6 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to conduct spoofing and phishing attacks by using a modal browser window in a way that preserves the original address bar and trusted UI of a trusted site, even after the browser has been navigated to a malicious site, aka the "Address Bar Spoofing Vulnerability."

GNOME GDM 2.8, 2.12, 2.14, and 2.15, when the "face browser" feature is enabled, allows local users to access the "Configure Login Manager" functionality using their own password instead of the root password, which can be leveraged to gain additional privileges.

Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a web page with a large number of IMG elements in which the SRC attribute is a mailto URI. NOTE: another researcher found that the web page caused a temporary browser slowdown instead of a crash.

Argument injection vulnerability in Avant Browser 10.1 Build 17 allows user-assisted remote attackers to modify command line arguments to an invoked mail client via " (double quote) characters in a mailto: scheme handler, as demonstrated by launching Microsoft Outlook with an arbitrary filename as an attachment. NOTE: it is not clear whether this issue is implementation-specific or a problem in the Microsoft API.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6 does not always correctly identify the domain that is associated with a browser window, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive cross-domain information and spoof sites by running script after the user has navigated to another site.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the "failed" functionality in Raindance Web Conferencing Pro allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the browser parameter.

The on-access scanner for McAfee Virex 7.7 for Macintosh, in some circumstances, might not activate when malicious content is accessed from the web browser, and might not prevent the content from being saved, which allows remote attackers to bypass virus protection, as demonstrated using the EICAR test file.

Bugzilla 2.19.3 through 2.20 does not properly handle "//" sequences in URLs when redirecting a user from the login form, which could cause it to generate a partial URL in a form action that causes the user's browser to send the form data to another domain.

Melange Chat Server (aka M-Chat), when accessed via a web browser, automatically sends cookies and other sensitive information for a server to any port specified in the associated link, which allows local users on that server to read the cookies from HTTP headers and possibly gain sensitive information, such as credentials, by setting up a listening port and reading the credentials when the victim clicks on the link.

Interpretation conflict in the MagicHTML filter in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.5 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via style sheet specifiers with invalid (1) "/*" and "*/" comments, or (2) a newline in a "url" specifier, which is processed by certain web browsers including Internet Explorer.

Interpretation conflict in PostNuke 0.761 and earlier allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via HTML tags with a trailing "<" character, which is interpreted as a ">" character by some web browsers but bypasses the blacklist protection in (1) the pnVarCleanFromInput function in pnAPI.php, (2) the pnSecureInput function in pnAntiCracker.php, and (3) the htmltext parameter in an edituser operation to user.php.

Buffer overflow in the plug-in for Microsoft Windows Media Player (WMP) 9 and 10, when used in browsers other than Internet Explorer and set as the default application to handle media files, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via HTML with an EMBED element containing a long src attribute.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Lotus Domino iNotes Client 6.5.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via email with attached html files, which are directly rendered in the browser.

Lexmark X1185 printer allows local users to gain SYSTEM privileges by navigating to the "Appearance" dialog and selecting the "Additional styles (skins) are available on the Lexmark web site" option, which launches a web browser that is running with SYSTEM privileges.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in results.php in BrowserCRM allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via certain manipulations of the query parameter, as demonstrated using an IMG SRC tag.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to bypass the Kill bit settings for dangerous ActiveX controls via unknown vectors involving crafted HTML, which can expose the browser to attacks that would otherwise be prevented by the Kill bit setting. NOTE: CERT/CC claims that MS05-054 fixes this issue, but it is not described in MS05-054.

Research in Motion (RIM) BlackBerry Handheld web browser for BlackBerry Handheld before 4.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via a Java Application Description (JAD) file with a long application name and vendor string, which prevents a browser dialog from being properly dismissed.
