This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Mozilla Firefox browser. Firefox 1.5 is affected. Attackers using Metasploit Framework can exploit this vulnerability leading to arbitrary code execution.
Multiple Mozilla products are prone to multiple vulnerabilities. These issues include various memory-corruption, code-injection, and access-restriction-bypass vulnerabilities.
