Vendor

Netscape Communications Corporation was an American independent computer services company with headquarters in Mountain View, California, and then Dulles, Virginia. Its Netscape web browser was once dominant but lost to Internet Explorer and other competitors in the first browser war, with its market share falling from more than 90 percent in the mid-1990s to less than one percent in 2006. An early Netscape employee, Brendan Eich, created the JavaScript programming language, the most widely used language for client-side scripting of web pages.

CVE-1999-0239Hig0.527.50.04Jan 1, 1998Netscape FastTrack Web server lists files when a lowercase "get" command is used instead of an uppercase GET.
CVE-1999-0012Hig0.467.00.01Feb 6, 1998Some web servers under Microsoft Windows allow remote attackers to bypass access restrictions for files with long file names.
CVE-1999-00450.060.37Dec 10, 1996List of arbitrary files on Web host via nph-test-cgi script.
CVE-2006-42530.050.31Aug 21, 2006Concurrency vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via multiple Javascript timed events that load a deeply nested XML file, followed by redirecting the browser to another page, which leads to a concurrency failure that causes structures to be freed incorrectly, as demonstrated by (1) ffoxdie and (2) ffoxdie3. NOTE: it has been reported that Netscape 8.1 and K-Meleon 1.0.1 are also affected by ffoxdie. Mozilla confirmed to CVE that ffoxdie and ffoxdie3 trigger the same underlying vulnerability. NOTE: it was later reported that Firefox 2.0 RC2 and 1.5.0.7 are also affected.
CVE-2005-41340.050.28Dec 9, 2005Mozilla Firefox 1.5, Netscape 8.0.4 and 7.2, and K-Meleon before 0.9.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and delayed application startup) via a web site with a large title, which is recorded in history.dat but not processed efficiently during startup. NOTE: despite initial reports, the Mozilla vendor does not believe that this issue can be used to trigger a crash or buffer overflow in Firefox. Also, it has been independently reported that Netscape 8.1 does not have this issue.
CVE-2005-09890.050.25May 2, 2005The find_replen function in jsstr.c in the Javascript engine for Mozilla Suite 1.7.6, Firefox 1.0.1 and 1.0.2, and Netscape 7.2 allows remote attackers to read portions of heap memory in a Javascript string via the lambda replace method.
CVE-2004-07220.050.23Aug 18, 2004Integer overflow in the SOAPParameter object constructor in (1) Netscape version 7.0 and 7.1 and (2) Mozilla 1.6, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2000-06760.050.29Oct 20, 2000Netscape Communicator and Navigator 4.04 through 4.74 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by using a Java applet to open a connection to a URL using the "file", "http", "https", and "ftp" protocols, as demonstrated by Brown Orifice.
CVE-2007-13770.040.17Mar 10, 2007AcroPDF.DLL in Adobe Reader 8.0, when accessed from Mozilla Firefox, Netscape, or Opera, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (unspecified resource consumption) via a .pdf URL with an anchor identifier that begins with search= followed by many %n sequences, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-6027 and CVE-2006-6236.
CVE-2006-48420.040.12Oct 12, 2006The Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) API 4.6.1 and 4.6.2, as used in Sun Solaris 10, trusts user-specified environment variables for specifying log files even when running from setuid programs, which allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files.
CVE-2006-28940.040.07Jun 7, 2006Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.4, 2.0.x before 2.0.0.8, Mozilla Suite 1.7.13, Mozilla SeaMonkey 1.0.2 and other versions before 1.1.5, and Netscape 8.1 and earlier allow user-assisted remote attackers to read arbitrary files by tricking a user into typing the characters of the target filename in a text box and using the OnKeyDown, OnKeyPress, and OnKeyUp Javascript keystroke events to change the focus and cause those characters to be inserted into a file upload input control, which can then upload the file when the user submits the form.
CVE-2002-23380.040.07Dec 31, 2002The POP3 mail client in Mozilla 1.0 and earlier, and Netscape Communicator 4.7 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (no new mail) via a mail message containing a dot (.) at a newline, which is interpreted as the end of the message.
CVE-2002-10420.040.11Oct 4, 2002Directory traversal vulnerability in search engine for iPlanet web server 6.0 SP2 and 4.1 SP9, and Netscape Enterprise Server 3.6, when running on Windows platforms, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via ..\ (dot-dot backslash) sequences in the NS-query-pat parameter.
CVE-2000-11960.040.10Aug 31, 2001PSCOErrPage.htm in Netscape PublishingXpert 2.5 before SP2 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by specifying the target file in the errPagePath parameter.
CVE-2001-05960.040.18Aug 2, 2001Netscape Communicator before 4.77 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Javascript via a GIF image whose comment contains the Javascript.
CVE-2001-02620.040.08Jul 2, 2001Buffer overflow in Netscape SmartDownload 1.3 allows remote attackers (malicious web pages) to execute arbitrary commands via a long URL.

CVE-2000-10740.040.07Dec 11, 2000csstart program in iCal 2.1 Patch 2 uses relative pathnames to install the libsocket and libnsl libraries, which could allow the icsuser account to gain root privileges by creating a Trojan Horse library in the current or parent directory.
CVE-2000-07110.040.07Oct 20, 2000Netscape Communicator does not properly prevent a ServerSocket object from being created by untrusted entities, which allows remote attackers to create a server on the victim's system via a malicious applet, as demonstrated by Brown Orifice.
