Vulnerabilities description
- CVE-2024-11692
A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory describes the following issue: An attacker could cause a select dropdown to be shown over another tab; this could have led to user confusion and possible spoofing attacks.
- CVE-2024-11694
The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory: Enhanced Tracking Protection's Strict mode may inadvertently allow a CSP frame-src bypass and DOM-based cross-site scripting (XSS) through the Google SafeFrame shim in the Web Compatibility extension. This issue could expose users to malicious frames masquerading as legitimate content.
- CVE-2024-11695
A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory describes the following issue: A crafted URL containing Arabic script and whitespace characters could have hidden the true origin of the page, resulting in a potential spoofing attack.
- CVE-2024-11696
The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory: The application can fail to account for exceptions thrown by the loadManifestFromFile method during add-on signature verification. This flaw is triggered by an invalid or unsupported extension manifest and could cause runtime errors that disrupt the signature validation process. As a result, the enforcement of signature validation for unrelated add-ons may be bypassed. Signature validation in this context is used to ensure that third-party applications on the user's computer have not tampered with the user's extensions, limiting the impact of this issue.
- CVE-2024-11697
A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory describes the following issue: When handling keypress events, an attacker may have been able to trick a user into bypassing the "Open Executable File?" confirmation dialog. This could have led to malicious code execution.
- CVE-2024-11699
A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation's Security Advisory describes the following issue: Memory safety bugs are present in Firefox 132, Firefox ESR 128.4, and Thunderbird 128.4. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption, and we presume that with enough effort, some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code.
- CVE-2024-11159
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: Using remote content in OpenPGP encrypted messages can lead to the disclosure of plaintext.
