Description

Mozilla Firefox before 30.0 and Thunderbird through 24.6 on OS X do not ensure visibility of the cursor after interaction with a Flash object and a DIV element, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks via JavaScript code that produces a fake cursor image.

Affected products

Mozilla Firefox: through 29.0.1
Mozilla Thunderbird: through 24.6; 24.0, 24.0.1, 24.1, 24.1.1, 24.2, 24.3 (+2)
