Descriptions

The js_dtoa function in Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.1, 1.5.x before 1.5.0.9, Thunderbird before 1.5.0.9, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.7 overwrites memory instead of exiting when the floating point precision is reduced, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via any plugins that reduce the precision.

La función js_dtoa en Mozilla Firefox 2.x anterior a 2.0.0.1, 1.5.x anterior a 1.5.0.9, Thunderbird anterior a 1.5.0.9, y SeaMonkey anterior a 1.0.7 sobrescribe memoria en lugar de salir cuando la precisión de coma flotante es reducida, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio mediante cualquier plugin que reduzca dicha precisión.
