Descriptions

vmtypedarrayobject.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 does not validate the length of the destination array before a copy operation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and application crash) by triggering incorrect use of the TypedArrayObject class.

vmtypedarrayobject.cpp en Mozilla Firefox anterior a 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x anterior a 24.4, Thunderbird anterior a 24.4 y SeaMonkey anterior a 2.25 no valida la longitud del array de destino antes de una operación de copiar, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (escritura fuera de rango y caída de aplicación) mediante el aprovechamiento del uso incorrecto de la clase TypedArrayObject.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Mozilla Firefox. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of TypedArrayObjects. The issue lies in improper handling when neutering an array. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
