Details

Following the sandbox escape in CVE-2025-2783, various Firefox developers identified a similar pattern in our IPC code. Attackers were able to confuse the parent process into leaking handles to unprivileged child processes leading to a sandbox escape. The original vulnerability was being exploited in the wild. This only affects Firefox on Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 136.0.4, Firefox ESR < 128.8.1, and Firefox ESR < 115.21.1.
