Descriptions

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability may occur in WebAssembly during Memory/Table resizing, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 58.

Podría ocurrir un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica (heap) en WebAssembly durante el redimensionamiento de Memory/Table, resultando en un cierre inesperado potencialmente explotable. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a las versiones anteriores a la 58 de Firefox.

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 cause a denial of service via application crash, spoof the origin in audio capture prompts, trick the user in to providing HTTP credentials for another origin, spoof the addressbar contents, or execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
