Title:
Firefox allows a user to alter/delete a third party website cookie
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I was in conflict with a certain technological company. I usually
browsed their website, downloaded a few PDF files, and contacted with
them via a Yahoo mail account using the Firefox browser. Some of the
emails from the company had graphic signatures. At a certain date
where my contract with the company ended, and I choosed not to renew
the contract, I wasn't able to access my Yahoo mail account using the
bookmark, and I had to enter my Yahoo mail password. If the user
doesn't remember a website's password, this can be unpleasant. I have
a Yahoo mail account for years, and this never happened to me. It
looks like the vulnerability is that a developer from company X can
write code on a website, a PDF file, or linked to an email, that will
alter/delete a cookie that belongs to website Y.
