VectorAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 27.0 SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.24
Description The issue is related to a flaw in the file-download implementation, which does not properly restrict the timing of button selections. This allows remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks and trigger the unintended launching of a downloaded file via a crafted web site. The vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers to substitute the interface/cursor and cause the unintended launch of a downloaded file using a specially formed web site.
Recommendations For Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 27.0, update to version 27.0 or later to resolve the issue. For SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.24, update to version 2.24 or later to resolve the issue.
