Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 46.0 Firefox ESR versions 38.x prior to 38.8 Firefox ESR versions 45.x prior to 45.1

Description The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the stagefright::SampleTable::parseSampleCencInfo function within the libstagefright component. This overflow occurs due to mismanagement of the sizes table when handling crafted CENC offsets, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
