Descriptions
Memory safety bugs were reported in Firefox 51. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52 and Thunderbird < 52.
Se han reportado errores de seguridad de memoria en Firefox 51. Algunos de estos errores mostraron evidencias de corrupción de memoria y se entiende que, con el suficiente esfuerzo, algunos de estos podrían explotarse para ejecutar código arbitrario. La vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox en versiones anteriores a la 52 y Thunderbird en versiones anteriores a la 52.
Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to bypass same origin restrictions, obtain sensitive information, spoof the addressbar, spoof the print dialog, cause a denial of service via application crash or hang, or execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
