Descriptions

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 49.0, Firefox ESR 45.x before 45.4 and Thunderbird < 45.4 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

Múltiples vulnerabilidades no especificadas en el motor del navegador en Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a la 49.0, Firefox ESR en versiones 45.x anteriores a la 45.4 y Thunderbird en versiones anteriores a la 45.4 permiten a los atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria y cierre inesperado de la aplicación) o, posiblemente, ejecutar código arbitrario mediante vectores no conocidos.
