(Keywords: meta, Whiteboard: security)

this will be the meta bug for security issues that arise from bugzilla allowing untrusted content to come from bugzilla.mozilla.org. see http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2000-02.html for information on the general problem. incidentally, slashdot reported today that there is a worm floating around that exploits this problem on web-based e-mail sites that show .html attachments as text/html. http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/05/10/1541244&mode=thread

Jesse, I just readded bug #21253 because I thought it was accidentally removed due to the midair dependency bug, but someone pointed out that this might not be the case ... if so just remove it again. It's probably good practice to add a comment if you remove a dep someone else added.
every remaining bug being tracked here is targetted at 2.14, so this should, too.

Note that some of these bugs might allow an attacker to view Netscape-confidential bugs. See my comments in bug 66091.

Should this also depend on bug#95235 ?
since all dependencies are resolved, the tracking bug is resolved.
