Descriptions

The lifecycle of IPC Actors allows managed actors to outlive their manager actors; and the former must ensure that they are not attempting to use a dead actor they have a reference to. Such a check was omitted in WebGL, resulting in a use-after-free and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84.

El ciclo de vida de IPC Actors, permite a actores administrados sobrevivir a sus actores administradores;&#xa0;y los primeros deben asegurarse de que no están intentando usar a un actor eliminado al que presentan en una referencia.&#xa0;Esta comprobación se omitió en WebGL, resultando en un uso de la memoria previamente liberada y un bloqueo potencialmente explotable.&#xa0;Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox versiones anteriores a 84
