Descriptions
Mozilla Firefox before 38.0 does not recognize a referrer policy delivered by a referrer META element in cases of context-menu navigation and middle-click navigation, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading web-server Referer logs that contain private data in a URL, as demonstrated by a private path component.
Mozilla Firefox anterior a 38.0 no reconoce una política de referer entregada por un elemento META del referer en casos de la navegación del menú contextual y la navegación por el botón central del ratón, lo que permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible mediante la lectura de los registros del Referer del servidor web que contienen datos privados en una URL, tal y como fue demostrado por un componente de ruta privada.
Jesse Ruderman, Mats Palmgren, Byron Campen, Steve Fink, Gary Kwong, Andrew McCreight, Christian Holler, Jon Coppeard, and Milan Sreckovic discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, 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 Firefox. Atte Kettunen discovered a buffer overflow during the rendering of SVG content with certain CSS properties in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, 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 Firefox.
