HTTP: Mozilla Firefox Dom Property Cookie Theft
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Mozilla Firefox Location.Hostname. A successful attack can lead to unauthorized information disclosure.
Extended Description
Mozilla Firefox is prone to a vulnerability that allows attackers to steal cookies. This issue occurs because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue to manipulate cookie-based authentication credentials for third-party web pages or to control how the site is rendered to the user. Exploiting this issue may allow the attacker to bypass the same-origin policy for cross-window/cross-frame data access; other attacks are also possible. This issue affects version 2.0.0.1; prior versions may also be affected.
