Descriptions

If an out-of-memory condition occurs at a specific point using allocations in the probabilistic heap checker, an assertion could have been triggered, and in rarer situations, memory corruption could have occurred. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 127.

Si se produce una condición de falta de memoria en un punto específico utilizando asignaciones en el verificador de montón probabilístico, se podría haber activado una aserción y, en situaciones más raras, se podría haber producido corrupción de la memoria. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox &lt; 127.

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. Lukas Bernhard discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory during garbage collection. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
