Category:General
Title:Mozilla Firefox Multiple Vulnerabilities - Mac OS X
Summary:Mozilla Firefox is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
Mozilla Firefox is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:
Multiple flaws are due to:

- A use-after-free vulnerability with a '' element on a page. This
occurs when a resize event is triggered in concert with style changes but
the canvas references have been recreated in the meantime, destroying the
originally referenced context. This results in an exploitable crash.

- A vulnerability in the way Firefox handles installation of add-ons.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation will allow remote
attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging improper interaction between
resize events and changes to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequences for
a CANVAS element and to bypass an intended user-confirmation requirement by
constructing a crafted data.

Affected Software/OS:
Mozilla Firefox version before 40.0.3 on
(Mac OS X)

Solution:
Upgrade to Mozilla Firefox version 40.0.3
or later.

CVSS Score:
10.0
