Summary
firefox vulnerabilities
Details

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-7518, CVE-2024-7521, CVE-2024-7524, CVE-2024-7526, CVE-2024-7527, CVE-2024-7528, CVE-2024-7529, CVE-2024-7530, CVE-2024-7531)

It was discovered that Firefox did not properly manage certain memory operations when processing graphics shared memory. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to escape the sandbox. (CVE-2024-7519)

Nan Wang discovered that Firefox did not properly handle type check in WebAssembly. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-7520)

Irvan Kurniawan discovered that Firefox did not properly check an attribute value in the editor component, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or expose sensitive information. (CVE-2024-7522)

Rob Wu discovered that Firefox did not properly check permissions when creating a StreamFilter. An attacker could possibly use this issue to modify response body of requests on any site using a web extension. (CVE-2024-7525)
