Insight
Multiple flaws due to,
- Cookies marked 'HTTPOnly' are readable by JavaScript through the request calls of XMLHttpRequest methods i.e. XMLHttpRequest.getAllResponseHeaders and XMLHttpRequest.getResponseHeader.
- Using local internet shortcut files to access other sites could be bypassed by redirecting to a privileged 'about:' URI e.g. 'about:plugins'.
- Chrome XBL methods can be used to execute arbitrary Javascripts within the context of another website through the same origin policy by using 'window.eval' method.
- 'components/sessionstore/src/nsSessionStore.js' file does not block the changes of INPUT elements to type='file' during tab restoration.
- Error in caching certain HTTP directives which is being ignored by Firefox which can expose sentive data in any shared network.
