Re: [Full-disclosure] Mozilla Firefox Insecure Element Stealth Injection Vulnerability

Dear Michal Majchrowicz,

 This feature is not intended to protect against XSS, it's only intended
 to inform you some information is transmitted in cleartext. You can
 simply change

 src="http://server2.com/xss.js

 to

 src="https://server2.com/xss.js

 to avoid this message.
