Details

(Whiteboard: [good first bug])

in Mozilla Suite, "mozilla.org" is listed in preference "xpinstall.whitelist.add". This means that users can be tricked into installing extensions from bugzilla.mozilla.org (which is HTTPS!). Suggested remedy: change the default value from "mozilla.org, mozdev.org, texturizer.net" to "update.mozilla.org" (as in Firefox)
Doesn't need to be security confidential, whitelisting not active anyway
