VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions NSPR versions prior to 4.10.6
Description The issue affects the Mozilla Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) and can be exploited remotely, potentially leading to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. The exploitation involves vectors related to the sprintf and console functions, which can result in the execution of arbitrary code or a denial of service due to an out-of-bounds write.
Recommendations For NSPR versions prior to 4.10.6, update to version 4.10.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the sprintf and console functions until a patch is available.
