CVE-2014-1480  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-1021  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:12.04 firefox to version 27.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox package and not the firefox package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:12.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

The file-download implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 27.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.24 does not properly restrict the timing of button selections, which allows remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks, and trigger unintended launching of a downloaded file, via a crafted web site.
