HTTP: Mozilla Firefox File Input Element Memory Corruption
There exists vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox. The vulnerability is due to a race condition when handling a DOM method on a specific HTML form object. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing the target user to open a crafted web page. Successful exploitation would allow for arbitrary code injection and execution with the privileges of the currently logged on user. In a successful attack, arbitrary code is supplied and executed on the vulnerable target host. The behaviour of the target system is dependent on the malicious code. Note that any code executed by the attacker runs with the privileges of the logged in user. In an attack where code execution fails, the vulnerable application will terminate abnormally while parsing the malicious document.
