The installed version of Firefox 3.6 is earlier than 3.6.23. Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :
An integer underflow exists when handling a large JavaScript โRegExpโ expression that can allow a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2011-2998)
If an attacker could trick a user into holding down the โEnterโ key, via a malicious game, for example, a malicious application or extension could be downloaded and executed. (CVE-2011-2372)
Unspecified errors exist that can be exploited to corrupt memory. No additional information is available at this time. (CVE-2011-2995, CVE-2011-2996)
There is an error in the implementation of the โwindow.locationโ JavaScript object when creating named frames. This can be exploited to bypass the same-origin policy and potentially conduct cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2011-2999)
A weakness exists when handling the โLocationโ header.
This can lead to response splitting attacks when visiting a vulnerable web server. The same fix has been applied to the headers โContent-Lengthโ and โContent-Dispositionโ. (CVE-2011-3000)
