Description

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability has been found in Firefox before 71.0 and Thunderbird before 68.3 where the plain text serializer used a fixed-size array for the number of elements it could process; however it was possible to overflow the static-sized array leading to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash.
