Security researcher Robert Kugler reported
in 2012 that when a specifically named DLL file on a Windows computer is
placed in the default downloads directory with the Firefox installer, the
Firefox installer will load this DLL file when it is launched. Mozilla
developers Brian Bondy and Robert Strong then
discovered that the stub installer was vulnerable to this same issue with a
number of DLL files and there were additionally vulnerable named DLL files with
the full installer. In circumstances where an installer is run by an
administrator privileged account, this allows for a downloaded DLL file to be
run with those administrator privileges.");
