AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 29.0 SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.26

Description The issue exists in the mozilla::dom::TextTrack::AddCue function due to incorrect garbage collection related to Text Track Manager variables. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and heap memory corruption) via a crafted VIDEO element in an HTML document.

Recommendations For Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 29.0, update to version 29.0 or later to resolve the issue. For SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.26, update to version 2.26 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the AddCue function in the TextTrack object until a patch is available.
