    <p>
    Jesse Ruderman and Petko D. Petkov reported that the jar protocol
    handler in Mozilla Firefox and Seamonkey does not properly check MIME
    types (CVE-2007-5947). Gregory Fleischer reported that the
    window.location property can be used to generate a fake HTTP Referer
    (CVE-2007-5960). Multiple memory errors have also been reported
    (CVE-2007-5959).

  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could possibly exploit these vulnerabilities to
    execute arbitrary code in the context of the browser and conduct
    Cross-Site-Scripting or Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
