title: Same origin violation and local file stealing via PDF reader
---
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Security researcher <strong>Cody Crews</strong> reported on a way to
violate the same origin policy and inject script into a non-privileged part
of the built-in PDF Viewer. This would allow an attacker to read and steal
sensitive local files on the victim's computer.
</p>
<p>Mozilla has received reports that an exploit based on this vulnerability
has been found in the wild.
