VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 85
Description The issue is related to the incorrect use of the 'RowCountChanged' method, potentially leading to a user-after-poison and a crash. This could allow a remote attacker to elevate privileges or cause a denial of service. The vulnerability is associated with a buffer overflow in memory.
Recommendations For versions prior to 85, update to version 85 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the RowCountChanged method until a patch is available.
