Posted Aug 29, 2013
Authored by regenrecht, juan vazquez | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found on Firefox 17.0 (< 17.0.2), specifically an use after free of an Element object, when using the serializeToStream method with a specially crafted OutputStream defining its own write function. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully with Firefox 17.0.1 ESR, 17.0.1 and 17.0 on Windows XP SP3.
