Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 15.0 Firefox ESR versions prior to 10.0.7 Thunderbird versions prior to 15.0 Thunderbird ESR versions prior to 10.0.7 SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.12

Description The issue is caused by an integer overflow in the nsSVGFEMorphologyElement::Filter function, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SVG filter. This triggers an incorrect sum calculation, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.

For Thunderbird versions prior to 15.0, update to version 15.0 or later. For Thunderbird ESR versions prior to 10.0.7, update to version 10.0.7 or later.
