What is CVE-2014-1529?

The Web Notification API present in Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey prior to the specified versions allows attackers to bypass restrictions on source components. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary JavaScript code in a privileged context, potentially enabling malicious activities on the user's system if Notification.permission is wrongly granted through a crafted web page.
