The information disclosure bug affects the password manager in Firefox 2.0
and its equivalent in IE7. Firefox's Password Manager, for example, fails to
properly check URLs before filling in saved user credentials into web forms.
As a result, hackers might be able to swipe users credentials via malicious
forms in the same domain, providing users have already filled out forms on
this domain.
