Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 38.0 on Android does not properly restrict writing URL data to the Android logging system, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application that has a required permission for reading a log, as demonstrated by the READ_LOGS permission for the mixed-content violation log on Android 4.0 and earlier.

Mozilla Firefox anterior a 38.0 en Android no restringe correctamente la escritura de datos de URLs en el sistema de registros de, lo que permite a atacantes obtener información sensible a través de una aplicación manipulada que tiene un permiso requerido para la lectura de un registro, tal y como fue demostrado por el permiso READ_LOGS para el registro de la violación de contenidos mixtos en Android 4.0 y anteriores.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Firefox, Thunderbird, Network Security Services (NSS), and NetScape Portable Runtime (NSPR) with the worst of which may allow remote execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 4.12 are affected.
