Vulnerability Summary

The jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox prior to 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey prior to 1.1.7 retrieves the inner URL regardless of its MIME type, and considers HTML documents within a jar archive to have the same origin as the inner URL, which allows remote malicious users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a jar: URI.
