| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 27.0
Firefox ESR 24.x versions prior to 24.3
Thunderbird versions prior to 24.3
SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.24
Description
The issue is related to errors in the source code, specifically in the RasterImage.cpp file, which does not prevent access to discarded data. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via crafted image data. The exploitation of this issue can lead to incorrect write operations.
Recommendations
For Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 27.0, update to version 27.0 or later.
For Firefox ESR 24.x versions prior to 24.3, update to version 24.3 or later.
For Thunderbird versions prior to 24.3, update to version 24.3 or later.
For SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.24, update to version 2.24 or later.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of image data in the affected software until a patch is available.
