Vulnerabilities description

  • CVE-2024-6601

    A race condition could lead to a cross-origin container obtaining permissions of the top-level origin. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128, Firefox ESR < 115.13, Thunderbird < 115.13, and Thunderbird < 128.

  • CVE-2024-6603

    In an out-of-memory scenario an allocation could fail but free would have been called on the pointer afterwards leading to memory corruption.

  • CVE-2024-6604

    Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 127, Firefox ESR 115.12, and Thunderbird 115.12. 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.
