CVE-2010-2762
Status: ModifiedMedium (6.8)—
The XPCSafeJSObjectWrapper class in the SafeJSObjectWrapper (aka SJOW) implementation in Mozilla Firefox 3.6.x before 3.6.9 and Thunderbird 3.1.x before 3.1.3 does not properly restrict objects at the end of scope chains, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with chrome privileges via vectors related to a chrome privileged object and a chain ending in an outer object.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
- Base score: 6.8
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 2.02%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 80
- Score date: 10/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
