      <Description>&lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;A browser extension is a program that has been installed into the browser which adds functionality to it. Where a plug-in interacts only with a web page and usually a third party external application (Flash, Adobe Reader) an extension interacts with the browser program itself. Extensions are not embedded in web pages and must be downloaded and installed in order to work. Extensions allow browsers to avoid restrictions which apply to web pages. For example, a Chrome extension can be written to combine data from multiple domains and present it when a certain page is accessed which can be considered Cross Site Scripting. If a browser is configured to allow unrestricted use of extension then plug-ins can be loaded and installed from malicious sources and used on the browser.&lt;/VulnDiscussion&gt;&lt;FalsePositives&gt;&lt;/FalsePositives&gt;&lt;FalseNegatives&gt;&lt;/FalseNegatives&gt;&lt;Documentable&gt;false&lt;/Documentable&gt;&lt;Mitigations&gt;&lt;/Mitigations&gt;&lt;SeverityOverrideGuidance&gt;&lt;/SeverityOverrideGuidance&gt;&lt;PotentialImpacts&gt;&lt;/PotentialImpacts&gt;&lt;ThirdPartyTools&gt;&lt;/ThirdPartyTools&gt;&lt;MitigationControl&gt;&lt;/MitigationControl&gt;&lt;Responsibility&gt;System Administrator&lt;/Responsibility&gt;&lt;IAControls&gt;&lt;/IAControls&gt;</Description>

      <Description>&lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;The default action for file types for which a plugin is installed is to automatically download and execute the file using the associated plugin. Firefox allows you to change the specified download action so that the file is opened with a selected external application or saved to disk instead. View the list of installed browser plugins and related MIME types by entering about:plugins in the address bar.
 
When you click a link to download a file, the MIME type determines what action Firefox will take. You may already have a plugin installed that will automatically handle the download, such as Windows Media Player or QuickTime. Other times, you may see a dialog asking whether you want to save the file or open it with a specific application. When you tell Firefox to open or save the file and also check the option to "Do this automatically for files like this from now on", an entry appears for that type of file in the Firefox Applications panel, shown below.

Criteria:
 
Method 1: In about:plugins, Installed plug-in, inspect the entries in the Suffixes column.
 
If any of the prohibited extensions are found, then for each of them, verify that it is not associated with an application that executes code. However, applications such as Notepad.exe that do not execute code may be associated with the extension. If the extension is associated with an unauthorized application, then this is a finding.
 
If the extension exists but is not associated with an application, then this is a finding.
 
Method 2:
Use the Options User Interface Applications menu to search for the prohibited extensions in the Content column of the table.
 
If an extension that is not approved for automatic execution exists and the entry in the Action column is associated with an application that does not execute the code (e.g., Notepad), then do not mark this as a finding.
 
If the entry exists and the "Action" is 'Save File' or 'Always Ask', then this is not a finding.
  
If an extension exists and the entry in the Action column is associated with an application that does/can execute the code, then this is a finding.
