Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird < 1.5.0.4 - Cross-Site Scripting via UTF-8 BOM Sequence

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird before 1.5.0.4 strip the Unicode Byte-order-Mark (BOM) from a UTF-8 page before the page is passed to the parser, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a BOM sequence in the middle of a dangerous tag such as SCRIPT.
