The file download dialog in Mozilla Firefox 0.10.1 and 1.0 for Windows uses the Content-Type HTTP header to determine the file type, but saves the original file extension when "Save to Disk" is selected, which allows remote attackers to hide the real file types of downloaded files.

Firefox before 1.0.5 and Mozilla before 1.7.9 does not clearly associate a Javascript dialog box with the web page that generated it, which allows remote attackers to spoof a dialog box from a trusted site and facilitates phishing attacks, aka the "Dialog Origin Spoofing Vulnerability."

Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6 allows remote malicious web sites to spoof the extensions of files to download via the Content-Disposition header, which could be used to trick users into downloading dangerous content.

Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6, when displaying the HTTP Authentication dialog, do not change the focus to the tab that generated the prompt, which could facilitate spoofing and phishing attacks.

Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6 truncates long sub-domains or paths for display, which may allow remote malicious web sites to spoof legitimate sites and facilitate phishing attacks.

Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6 allows remote attackers to spoof the SSL "secure site" lock icon via (1) a web site that does not finish loading, which shows the lock of the previous site, (2) a non-HTTP server that uses SSL, which causes the lock to be displayed when the SSL handshake is completed, or (3) a URL that generates an HTTP 204 error, which updates the icon and location information but does not change the display of the original site.

Firefox before 1.0.1 allows remote attackers to spoof the (1) security and (2) download modal dialog boxes, which could be used to trick users into executing script or downloading and executing a file, aka "Firespoofing."

Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla Suite before 1.7.6 use a predictable filename for the plugin temporary directory, which allows local users to delete arbitrary files of other users via a symlink attack on the plugtmp directory.

Firefox before 1.0.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into saving a page as a Firefox sidebar panel, then using the sidebar panel to inject Javascript into a privileged page.

Firefox before 1.0 does not properly distinguish between user-generated and synthetic click events, which allows remote attackers to use Javascript to bypass the file download prompt when the user uses the Alt-click feature.

Firefox before 1.0 and Mozilla before 1.7.5 display the SSL lock icon when an insecure page loads a binary file from a trusted site, which could facilitate phishing attacks.
