CVE-2014-8639 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Mozilla Firefox before 35.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.4, Thunderbird before 31.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.32 do not properly interpret Set-Cookie headers within responses that have a 407 (aka Proxy Authentication Required) status code, which allows remote HTTP proxy servers to conduct session fixation attacks by providing a cookie name that corresponds to the session cookie of the origin server.. EPSS estimates a 1.90% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
