David_L Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 I guess I don't understand it. It says I have 1 medium risk vulnerability "Mozilla XMLSerializer Same Origin Policy Violation Vulnerability (bid5766)" and recommends I should upgrade to Mozilla 1.0.2 or later. The only Mozilla app I'm using is FireFox 2.0.0.5 so I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDPower Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 That was posted a while back I think. Never used to work for me on Firefox but works now. Not sure how much use it is though - FF passes, IE passes, I even fired up the sodding awful AOL browser and that passed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capman Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 It was posted about 12 to 18 months ago from what I remember JD, and from what I remember all the browsers that I tried passed it, so the results are almost pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireryone Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Since their latest security news is from 2005 I consider this a bit out of date..... Actually I tried this back then as well, lets see how I go this time. Same as last time 1 risk: Medium Risk Vulnerabilities Mozilla XMLSerializer Same Origin Policy Violation Vulnerability (bid5766) Description This bug can allow a malicious web site to access your data on other web sites. For example it can be used to read you mail from a web mail system. Mozilla is an open source browser. From Netscape 6 onwards, Mozilla's source code has been used to create Netscape browser. As a result, Netscape suffers from many of the same vulnerabilities as Mozilla. Other browsers, such as Galeon, Phoenix, Camino (Chimera) also use Mozilla's source code and can be vulnerable too. Technical Details XMLSerializer object can be created by JavaScript code and used to serialize XML (or HTML) documents. serializeToStream method does not enforce same origin policy. It is possible to open a document in a different domain and then use serializeToStream method to get the contents of the document. Recommendations Netscape users need to upgrade to Netscape 7.01 or later to fix this vulnerability. Mozilla users need to upgrade to version 1.0.2 or later Galeon users - upgrade your Mozilla installation to version 1.0.2 or later and upgrade to Galeon version that supports it (1.2.6 or later) Phoenix users - upgrade to Phoenix 0.5 or later Camino (Chimera) users - upgrade to version 0.7 Additional Information Mozilla bug #91043 Mozilla Download Netscape Download Galeon Download Phoenix Download Camino (Chimera) download fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
