Category:General
Title:Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2013-38) - 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:
Cross-site scripting (XSS) using timed history navigations
Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported a method to use
browser navigations through history to load an arbitrary website with that
page's baseURI property pointing to another site instead of the seemingly loaded
one. The user will continue to see the incorrect site in the addressbar of the
browser. This allows for a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack or the theft of
data through a phishing attack.

Affected Software/OS:
Firefox version(s) below 20.

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

CVSS Score:
4.3

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