CWE Code: 264
Vulnerability Type: privilege_escalation
CVSS Score: 5.1
CWE Name:  Permissions Privileges and Access Controls
Summary: the pluginspage functionality in mozilla firefox before 1.5.0.4 allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute privileged code by tricking a user into installing missing plugins and selecting the "manual install" button, then using nested javascript: urls.  note: the manual install button is used for downloading software from a remote web site, so this issue would not cross privilege boundaries if the user progresses to the point of installing malicious software from the attacker-controlled site.
Access Authentication: NONE
Access Complexity: HIGH
Access Vector: NETWORK
Impact (C/I/A): PARTIAL/PARTIAL/PARTIAL
