Mozilla: Memory corruption during JavaScript garbage collection incremental sweeping (MFSA 2017-06)

Memory corruption resulting in a potentially exploitable crash during garbage collection of JavaScript due errors in how incremental sweeping is managed for memory cleanup. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

The Mozilla Windows updater can be called by a non-privileged user to delete an arbitrary local file by passing a special path to the callback parameter through the Mozilla Maintenance Service, which has privileged access. Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 45.8 and Firefox < 52.

Mozilla: Cross-origin reading of video captions in violation of CORS (MFSA 2017-06)

Video files loaded video captions cross-origin without checking for the presence of CORS headers permitting such cross-origin use, leading to potential information disclosure for video captions. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: Pixel and history stealing via floating-point timing side channel with SVG filters (MFSA 2017-06)

Using SVG filters that don't use the fixed point math implementation on a target iframe, a malicious page can extract pixel values from a targeted user. This can be used to extract history information and read text values across domains. This violates same-origin policy and leads to information disclosure. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: FTP response codes can cause use of uninitialized values for ports (MFSA 2017-06)

Mozilla: Use-after-free working with ranges in selections (MFSA 2017-06)

A use-after-free error can occur when manipulating ranges in selections with one node inside a native anonymous tree and one node outside of it. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: Memory Corruption when handling ErrorResult (MFSA 2017-06)

A crash triggerable by web content in which an "ErrorResult" references unassigned memory due to a logic error. The resulting crash may be exploitable. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: Use-after-free working with events in FontFace objects (MFSA 2017-06)

A use-after-free can occur when events are fired for a "FontFace" object after the object has been already been destroyed while working with fonts. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: Use-after-free while extracting a key value in IndexedDB

It is possible to delete an IndexedDB key value and subsequently try to extract it during conversion. This results in a use-after-free and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 69, Thunderbird < 68.1, Thunderbird < 60.9, Firefox ESR < 60.9, and Firefox ESR < 68.1.

Mozilla: asm.js JIT-spray bypass of ASLR and DEP (MFSA 2017-06)

JIT-spray targeting asm.js combined with a heap spray allows for a bypass of ASLR and DEP protections leading to potential memory corruption attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 52 and Firefox ESR 45.8 (MFSA 2017-06)

Memory safety bugs were reported in Thunderbird 45.7. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 52, Firefox ESR < 45.8, Thunderbird < 52, and Thunderbird < 45.8.

Mozilla: Use-after-free with Media Decoder (MFSA 2017-02)

A use-after-free vulnerability in the Media Decoder when working with media files when some events are fired after the media elements are freed from memory. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 45.7, Firefox ESR < 45.7, and Firefox < 51.

Mozilla: Use-after-free while manipulating video

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur while manipulating video elements if the body is freed while still in use. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 69, Thunderbird < 68.1, Thunderbird < 60.9, Firefox ESR < 60.9, and Firefox ESR < 68.1.

Mozilla: Same-origin policy violation with SVG filters and canvas to steal cross-origin images

A same-origin policy violation occurs allowing the theft of cross-origin images through a combination of SVG filters and a &lt;canvas&gt; element due to an error in how same-origin policy is applied to cached image content. The resulting same-origin policy violation could allow for data theft. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 69, Thunderbird < 68.1, Thunderbird < 60.9, Firefox ESR < 60.9, and Firefox ESR < 68.1.

Mozilla: Cross-origin access to unload event attributes

Navigation events were not fully adhering to the W3C's "Navigation-Timing Level 2" draft specification in some instances for the unload event, which restricts access to detailed timing attributes to only be same-origin. This resulted in potential cross-origin information exposure of history through timing side-channel attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 69, Thunderbird < 68.1, Thunderbird < 60.9, Firefox ESR < 60.9, and Firefox ESR < 68.1.

Mozilla: Insecure communication methods in Developer Tools JSON viewer (MFSA 2017-02)

The JSON viewer in the Developer Tools uses insecure methods to create a communication channel for copying and viewing JSON or HTTP headers data, allowing for potential privilege escalation. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 45.7, Firefox ESR < 45.7, and Firefox < 51.

Mozilla: XSS by breaking out of title and textarea elements using innerHTML

Some HTML elements, such as &lt;title&gt; and &lt;textarea&gt;, can contain literal angle brackets without treating them as markup. It is possible to pass a literal closing tag to .innerHTML on these elements, and subsequent content after that will be parsed as if it were outside the tag. This can lead to XSS if a site does not filter user input as strictly for these elements as it does for other elements. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 69, Thunderbird < 68.1, Thunderbird < 60.9, Firefox ESR < 60.9, and Firefox ESR < 68.1.

Mozilla: WebExtensions can use data: protocol to affect other extensions (MFSA 2017-02)

WebExtension scripts can use the "data:" protocol to affect pages loaded by other web extensions using this protocol, leading to potential data disclosure or privilege escalation in affected extensions. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 45.7 and Firefox < 51.

Mozilla: Location bar spoofing with unicode characters (MFSA 2017-02)

URLs containing certain unicode glyphs for alternative hyphens and quotes do not properly trigger punycode display, allowing for domain name spoofing attacks in the location bar. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 45.7, Firefox ESR < 45.7, and Firefox < 51.

Mozilla: Potential use-after-free during DOM manipulations (MFSA 2017-02)

A potential use-after-free found through fuzzing during DOM manipulation of SVG content. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 45.7, Firefox ESR < 45.7, and Firefox < 51.
