NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xulrunner package and not the xulrunner package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

Mozilla Firefox before 3.6.23 and 4.x through 5, Thunderbird before 6.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.3 do not properly handle "location" as the name of a frame, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via a crafted web site, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0170.
