Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 39.0 Mozilla Firefox ESR versions 31.x prior to 31.8 Mozilla Firefox ESR versions 38.x prior to 38.1

Description The issue is related to errors in the code of the PDF.js module in Mozilla Firefox, allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code by bypassing current access restrictions.
