Descriptions

The mozilla::dom::TextTrack::AddCue function in Mozilla Firefox before 29.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.26 does not properly perform garbage collection for Text Track Manager variables, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and heap memory corruption) via a crafted VIDEO element in an HTML document.

La función mozilla::dom::TextTrack::AddCue en Mozilla Firefox anterior a 29.0 y SeaMonkey anterior a 2.26 no realiza debidamente la recogida de basura para variables Text Track Manager variables, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (uso después de liberación y corrupción de memoria dinámica) a través de un elemento VIDEO manipulado en un documento HTML.
