An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2007-0981 exists.\n\nAffected product: Mozilla Firefox. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-0981/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-0981/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-0981","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-0981/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-0981","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j9xc-r2mv-xr3g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mozilla based browsers","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass same-origin policy and steal cookies by exploiting null byte handling in the hostname DOM property.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"firefox","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"seamonkey","vendor":"mozilla"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Mozilla based browsers, including Firefox before 1.5.0.10 and 2.x before 2.0.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.8, allow remote attackers to bypass the same origin policy, steal cookies, and conduct other attacks by writing a URI with a null byte to the hostname (location.hostname) DOM property, due to interactions with DNS resolver code.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2007-02-20","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2007-02-20","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"3340","stars":null,"title":"Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 - 'location.hostname' Cross-Domain"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0981","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mozilla:firefox","products":["mozilla:firefox","mozilla:seamonkey"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":58,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0982"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0980"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-02-16","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird Sandbox Escape","id":"CVE-2019-11708","kev_date_added":"2022-05-23","published":"2019-07-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mozilla Multiple Products Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2010-3765","kev_date_added":"2025-10-06","published":"2010-10-27"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2022-26486","kev_date_added":"2022-03-07","published":"2022-12-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2022-26485","kev_date_added":"2022-03-07","published":"2022-12-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2019-11707","kev_date_added":"2022-05-23","published":"2019-07-23"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox And Thunderbird Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2020-6819","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-24"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox And Thunderbird Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2020-6820","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-24"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can bypass same-origin policy and steal cookies by exploiting null byte handling in the hostname DOM property.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-0981/"}
