Descriptions
A lack of parameter validation on IPC messages results in a potential out-of-bounds write through malformed IPC messages. This can potentially allow for sandbox escape through memory corruption in the parent process. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.7, Firefox ESR < 52.7, and Firefox < 59.
La falta de validación de parámetros en los mensajes IPC resulta en una potencial escritura fuera de límites a través de mensajes IPC mal formados. Esto puede permitir un escape de sandbox mediante la corrupción de memoria en el proceso padre. 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.
