Description

Mozilla Firefox before 36.0 does not properly restrict transitions of JavaScript objects from a non-extensible state to an extensible state, which allows remote attackers to bypass a Caja Compiler sandbox protection mechanism or a Secure EcmaScript sandbox protection mechanism via a crafted web site.

Solution(s)

  • mozilla-firefox-upgrade-36_0
