Vulnerability Summary

The loadBindingDocument function in Mozilla Firefox 2.x prior to 2.0.0.19, Thunderbird 2.x prior to 2.0.0.19, and SeaMonkey 1.x prior to 1.1.14 does not perform any security checks related to the same-domain policy, which allows remote malicious users to read or access data from other domains via crafted XBL bindings.
