Mozilla Firefox 1.0.1 Javascript Images are Draggable

Subject: Mozilla Firefox 1.0.1 Javascript Images are Draggable
Date: 26 Feb 2005 05:12:47 -0000


Author: Paul
Affected Software: Mozilla Firefox 1.0.0, 1.0.1 (tested only on these versions)
Risk: Low/Medium

A minor security vulnerability exists in the way that Firefox handles 
cross-domain image dragging. Dragging an image into the address bar will cause 
Firefox to navigate to the image url even if it is a javascript url and the 
page to be navigated from is in a different domain than the page on which the 
image is shown. This may potentially allow attackers to steal cookies, etc.

A proof of concept is available at
http://greyhatsecurity.org/vulntests/firefox.htm

Vendor Reccomendations: 
Disable dragging images with javascript urls.

User Reccomendations:
Do not drag images into the address bar.
