CVE-2006-3808
Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.5 and SeaMonkey before 1.0.3 allows remote Proxy AutoConfig (PAC) servers to execute code with elevated privileges via a PAC script that sets the FindProxyForURL function to an eval method on a privileged object.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.95%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
