Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xulrunner, a runtime environment for XUL applications. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CVE-2008-5500 Jesse Ruderman discovered that the layout engine is vulnerable to DoS attacks that might trigger memory corruption and an integer overflow. (MFSA 2008-60)

  • CVE-2008-5503 Boris Zbarsky discovered that an information disclosure attack could be performed via XBL bindings. (MFSA 2008-61)

  • CVE-2008-5506 Marius Schilder discovered that it is possible to obtain sensible data via a XMLHttpRequest. (MFSA 2008-64)

  • CVE-2008-5507 Chris Evans discovered that it is possible to obtain sensible data via a JavaScript URL. (MFSA 2008-65)

  • CVE-2008-5508 Chip Salzenberg discovered possible phishing attacks via URLs with leading whitespaces or control characters.
    (MFSA 2008-66)

  • CVE-2008-5511 It was discovered that it is possible to perform cross-site scripting attacks via an XBL binding to an ‘unloaded document.’ (MFSA 2008-68)

  • CVE-2008-5512 It was discovered that it is possible to run arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges via unknown vectors.
