Descriptions
A buffer overflow can occur when manipulating the SVG "animatedPathSegList" through script. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.7, Firefox ESR < 52.7, and Firefox < 59.
Se puede producir un desbordamiento de bĂșfer cuando se manipula el SVG "animatedPathSegList" mediante un script. Esto resulta en un cierre inesperado explotable. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a las versiones anteriores a la 52.7 de Thunderbird, las versiones anteriores a la 52.7 de Firefox ESR y las versiones anteriores a la 59 de Firefox.
USN-3596-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update caused an issue where it was not possible to customize the toolbars when running Firefox in Unity. This update fixes the problem. 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 or opening new tabs, escape the sandbox, bypass same-origin restrictions, obtain sensitive information, confuse the user with misleading permission requests, or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the fetch API could incorrectly return cached copies of no-store/no-cache resources in some circumstances. A local attacker could potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information in environments where multiple users share a common profile. Various other issues were also addressed.
