Description

Heap-based buffer overflow in the mozilla::gfx::CopyRect function in Mozilla Firefox before 36.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.5, and Thunderbird before 31.5 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized process memory via a malformed SVG graphic.

Solution(s)

  • mozilla-firefox-esr-upgrade-31_5
  • mozilla-firefox-upgrade-36_0

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
