CVE-2011-3001 · MEDIUM Severity

AV:N/AC:M/AU:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

Mozilla Firefox 4.x through 6, Thunderbird before 7.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.4 do not prevent manual add-on installation in response to the holding of the Enter key, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted web site that triggers an unspecified internal error.
