The webrtc::VPMContentAnalysis::Release function in the WebRTC implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 uses incompatible approaches to the deallocation of memory for simple-type arrays, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.
Monthly Archives: April 2015
CVE-2015-0810 (firefox)
Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 on OS X does not ensure that the cursor is visible, which allows remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks via a Flash object in conjunction with DIV elements associated with layered presentation, and crafted JavaScript code that interacts with an IMG element.
CVE-2015-0811 (firefox)
The QCMS implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process heap memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via an image that is improperly handled during transformation.
CVE-2015-0812 (firefox)
Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 does not require an HTTPS session for lightweight theme add-on installations, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass an intended user-confirmation requirement by deploying a crafted web site and conducting a DNS spoofing attack against a mozilla.org subdomain.
CVE-2015-0813 (firefox, firefox_esr, thunderbird)
Use-after-free vulnerability in the AppendElements function in Mozilla Firefox before 37.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.6, and Thunderbird before 31.6 on Linux, when the Fluendo MP3 plugin for GStreamer is used, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a crafted MP3 file.
CVE-2015-0815 (firefox, firefox_esr, thunderbird)
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 37.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.6, and Thunderbird before 31.6 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
CVE-2015-0814 (firefox)
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 37.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
CVE-2015-0816 (firefox, firefox_esr, thunderbird)
Mozilla Firefox before 37.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.6, and Thunderbird before 31.6 do not properly restrict resource: URLs, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with chrome privileges by leveraging the ability to bypass the Same Origin Policy, as demonstrated by the resource: URL associated with PDF.js.
