Mozilla Firefox Resource Variant Directory Traversal Vulnerability

Mozilla Firefox Resource Variant Directory Traversal Vulnerability

Mozilla Firefox is prone to a directory-traversal vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied data.

An attacker can exploit this issue to access arbitrary files on an unsuspecting user's computer. Successful exploits can expose potentially sensitive information that could aid in further attacks.

This issue was introduced as part of the fix for BID 24191 (Mozilla Firefox Resource Directory Traversal Vulnerability) in Firefox 2.0.0.4.
