Mozilla Firefox GeckoActiveXObject Exception Message COM Object Enumeration Vulnerability

  Severity: HIGH
  CVE Identifier: CVE-2009-3987
  Advisory Date: FEB 15, 2011

  DESCRIPTION

The GeckoActiveXObject function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.16 and 3.5.x before 3.5.6, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.1, generates different exception messages depending on whether the referenced COM object is listed in the registry, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information about installed software by making multiple calls that specify the ProgID values of different COM objects.
