Excessive privileges In firefox
Description
A flaw was found in Firefox. The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory describes the following issue: Mozilla Firefox's update mechanism allowed a medium-integrity user process to interfere with the SYSTEM-level updater by manipulating the file-locking behavior. By injecting code into the user-privileged process, an attacker could bypass intended access controls, allowing SYSTEM-level file operations on paths controlled by a non-privileged user and enabling privilege escalation.
Mitigation
Update Impact
Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
