Category:General
Title:Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2012-18) - Linux
Summary:This host is missing a security update for Mozilla Firefox.
Description:Summary:
This host is missing a security update for Mozilla Firefox.

Vulnerability Insight:
window.fullScreen writeable by untrusted content
Mozilla developer Matt Brubeck reported that
window.fullScreen is writeable by untrusted content now that the DOM fullscreen
API is enabled. Because window.fullScreen does not include
mozRequestFullscreen's security protections, it could be used for UI spoofing.
This code change makes window.fullScreen read only by untrusted content, forcing
the use of the DOM fullscreen API in normal usage.

Affected Software/OS:
Firefox version(s) below 11.

Solution:
The vendor has released an update. Please see the reference(s) for more information.

CVSS Score:
6.4

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P
