Title: Mozilla Firefox Nested 'window.print()' Denial of Service Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

Mozilla Firefox is a browser available for multiple platforms.

The browser is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability that occurs when it parses a malicious webpage that contains nested 'window.print()' JavaScript functions.

To exploit this issue, an attacker must entice an unsuspecting user to visit a malicious site. Successful exploits will crash the affected browser, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

Firefox 2.0.0.20 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
