Mozilla Firefox 33.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.31 include path strings in CSP violation reports, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a web site that receives a report after a redirect.
The weakness was published 12/02/2014 by Muneaki Nishimura as mfsa2014-86 as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is available at mozilla.org.

Security researcher Muneaki Nishimura discovered that Content Security Policy (CSP) violation reports triggered by a redirect did not remove path information as required by the CSP specification. This potentially reveals information about the redirect that would not otherwise be known to the original site. This could be used by a malicious site to obtain sensitive information such as usernames or single-sign-on tokens encoded within the target URLs.
