Una falta de coincidencia entre el asignador y el desasignador podría haber provocado daños en la memoria. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox &lt; 128 y Firefox ESR &lt; 115.13.

A mismatch between allocator and deallocator could have led to memory corruption. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128, Firefox ESR < 115.13, Thunderbird < 115.13, and Thunderbird < 128.

The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: A mismatch between allocator and deallocator could have lead to memory corruption.

A mismatch between allocator and deallocator could have lead to memory corruption. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128, Firefox ESR < 115.13, Thunderbird < 115.13, and Thunderbird < 128.

Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cross-site tracing, or execute arbitrary code. Ronald Crane discovered that Thunderbird did not properly manage certain memory operations in the NSS. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service.
