First published: Mon Jul 07 2008(Updated: )
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.15 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.10 do not properly escape HTML in file:// URLs in directory listings, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or have unspecified other impact via a crafted filename.
