Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 44.0

Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the Buffer11::NativeBuffer11::map function in ANGLE, used in Mozilla Firefox. This could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, resulting in memory corruption, or possibly have other unspecified impacts.
