Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x before 3.0.18 and 3.5.x before 3.5.8, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.3, does not properly support the application/octet-stream content type as a protection mechanism against execution of web script in certain circumstances involving SVG and the EMBED element, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via an embedded SVG document.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Mozilla browser flaw where crafted web content could bypass browser origin protections and run script in a victim context. It affects Firefox 3.0.x before 3.0.18, Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.8, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.3. Exposure is most likely in legacy systems, kiosks, embedded desktop builds, or frozen Linux images still running the listed Firefox or SeaMonkey versions. Treat as a legacy-browser cleanup priority. It is not currently evidenced as actively exploited, but affected browsers are obsolete and unsafe for normal web use. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Firefox to 3.0.18, 3.5.8, or later.; Upgrade SeaMonkey to 2.0.3 or later.; Apply relevant Linux distribution security updates..
