CVE-2007-0981: n/a vulnerability

CVE-2007-0981: Mozilla based browsers, including Firefox before 1.5.0.10 and 2.x before 2.0.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0....

Mozilla based browsers, including Firefox before 1.5.0.10 and 2.x before 2.0.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.8, allow remote attackers to bypass the same origin policy, steal cookies, and conduct other attacks by writing a URI with a null byte to the hostname (location.hostname) DOM property, due to interactions with DNS resolver code.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old browser vulnerability that could let a malicious website bypass browser origin protections and access another site’s cookies. Business risk is highest where legacy Firefox, SeaMonkey, or Mozilla-based browsers remain in use. Exposure is limited to users running affected Mozilla-based browsers: Firefox before 1.5.0.10, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.2, or SeaMonkey before 1.0.8. Legacy desktops, unmanaged systems, and old Linux distributions are the most plausible remaining exposure. Treat as high priority only if legacy browsers remain in the environment. Modern fully patched browsers are unlikely to be exposed, but unsupported endpoints create direct session-theft risk from malicious web content. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Firefox and SeaMonkey beyond the fixed versions named in the CVE description.; Apply operating-system vendor browser packages from Red Hat, Gentoo, Debian, Slackware, or HP guidance where relevant.; Remove unsupported Mozilla-based browsers from managed endpoints..
