Last modified
CVE-2007-6589 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 does not update the origin domain when retrieving the inner URL parameter yields an HTTP redirect, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a jar: URI, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-5947.. EPSS estimates a 1.07% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
