Descriptions

The lut_inverse_interp16 function in the QCMS library in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) via crafted attributes in the ICC 4 profile of an image.

Vulnerabilidad en la función lut_inverse_interp16 en la librería QCMS en Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a 41.0, permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible o provocar una denegación de servicio (sobrelectura del buffer y caída de la aplicación) a través de atributos manipuados en el perfil ICC 4 de una imagen.

USN-2743-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. After upgrading, some users reported problems with bookmark creation and crashes in some circumstances. This update fixes the problem. Andrew Osmond, Olli Pettay, Andrew Sutherland, Christian Holler, David Major, Andrew McCreight, Cameron McCormack, Bob Clary and Randell Jesup 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. Various other issues were also addressed.
