[MEDIUM] GSettings desktop schemas regression
Title: GSettings desktop schemas regression
Summary: Firefox's ability to use system proxy settings regressed.
USN-1400-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. Firefox 11 started using
GSettings to access the system proxy settings. If there is a GSettings
proxy settings schema, Firefox will consume it. The GSettings proxy
settings schema that was shipped by default was unused by other
applications and broke Firefox's ability to use system proxy settings. This
update removes the unused schema. We apologize for the inconvenience.

dropping JavaScript links onto a frame. A remote attacker could, through
cross-site scripting (XSS), exploit this to modify the contents or steal
confidential data.
