Mozilla Firefox Referer-spoofing Via window.location Race condition

  Severity: MEDIUM
  CVE Identifier: CVE-2007-5960
  Advisory Date: FEB 04, 2011

  DESCRIPTION

 Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 sets the Referer header to the window or frame in which script is running, instead of the address of the content that initiated the script, which allows remote attackers to spoof HTTP Referer headers and bypass Referer-based CSRF protection schemes by setting window.location and using a modal alert dialog that causes the wrong Referer to be sent.
