Descriptions

Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 129, Firefox ESR 128.1, and Thunderbird 128.1. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 130 and Firefox ESR < 128.2.

The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory: Memory safety bugs are present in Firefox 129, Firefox ESR 128.1, and Thunderbird 128.1. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort, some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code.
