Say you're signed in to BrowserID already ... is there anything that would stop an attacker from being able to log you into some other BrowserID website without your knowledge or consent? With login reduced to two mouse clicks, it seems like a well-crafted webpage could log you in wherever it wanted. If that were the case, a CSRF-vulnerable BrowserID webpage could easily be exploited at a large scale.
