A vulnerability has been identified in Mozilla Firefox, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. This flaw is due to a memory corruption error when processing a specially crafted HTML script that contains references to deleted objects and the "designMode" property is enabled, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable browser or remotely take complete control of an affected system by tricking a user into visiting a malicious Web page.
