CVE-2007-0778  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade mozilla to version 1.5.0.10, 2.0.0.2 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. The page cache feature in Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.10 and 2.x before 2.0.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.8 can generate hash collisions that cause page data to be appended to the wrong page cache, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or enable further attack vectors when the target page is reloaded from the cache.
