MOZILLA FOUNDATION SECURITY ADVISORY 2015-68


OS X CRASH REPORTS MAY CONTAIN ENTERED KEY PRESS INFORMATION

Announced July 2, 2015 Reporter David Parks Impact Low Products Firefox,
SeaMonkey Fixed in
 * Firefox 39
 * SeaMonkey 2.38


DESCRIPTION

Mozilla developer David Parks discovered while reviewing Firefox crash reports
that personal data can sometimes be contained in reports from OS X systems. This
is because these OS X crash reports will contain the native key that triggered
the crash and this can sometimes contain key press information that was being
entered when the crash occurred.

This issue does not affect Linux or Windows installations of Firefox.

 * Some mac crash reports include private information (CVE-2015-2742)
