Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 31.0 and Thunderbird before 31.0 do not properly implement the sandbox attribute of the IFRAME element, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended restrictions on same-origin content via a crafted web site in conjunction with a redirect.

Mozilla Firefox anterior a 31.0 y Thunderbird anterior a 31.0 no implementa debidamente el atributo sandbox del elemento IFRAME, lo que permite a atacantes remotos evadir las restricciones en el contenido del mismo origen a través de un sitio web manipulado en conjunto con una redirección.

Christian Holler, David Keeler and Byron Campen discovered multiple memory safety issues in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted message with scripting enabled, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. Atte Kettunen discovered a buffer overflow when interacting with WebAudio buffers. If a user had enabled scripting, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. Various other issues were also addressed.
