Description:
zen-parse has reported a vulnerability in Mozilla and Netscape, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the JAR handler and can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted ".jar" file.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
