Descriptions

The Profiler implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 22.0 parses untrusted data during UI rendering, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code via a crafted web site.

La implementación Profiler en Mozilla Firefox anterior a v22.0 analiza los datos no confiables en la interfaz de representación de usuario que permite a atacantes remotos asistidos por el usuario ejecutar código JavaScript arbitrario a través de un sitio web manipulado.

Multiple memory safety issues were discovered in Firefox. If the user were tricked into opening a specially crafted page, an attacker could possibly exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. Abhishek Arya discovered multiple use-after-free bugs. If the user were tricked into opening a specially crafted page, an attacker could possibly exploit these to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox.
