Cross-Domain Callback Execution Vulnerability in Firefox and Mozilla

CVE-2005-2263 · MEDIUM Severity

AV:N/AC:L/AU:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

The InstallTrigger.install method in Firefox before 1.0.5 and Mozilla before 1.7.9 allows remote attackers to execute a callback function in the context of another domain by forcing a page navigation after the install method has been called, which causes the callback to be run in the context of the new page and results in a same origin violation.
