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.

js/src/proxy/Proxy.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 mishandles certain receiver arguments, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended window access restrictions via a crafted web site.
