Multiple Mozilla products XUL popups spoofing
| mozilla-xulpopups-spoofing (34606) |  Low Risk |
Description:
Mozilla Firefox and SeaMonkey could allow a remote attacker to spoof XUL popups. By persuading a victim to visit a specially-crafted Web site, an attacker could place XUL popups outside the content area boundary. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to spoof parts of the browser which could be used to launch further attacks against the affected system.
