USN-6890-1: Firefox vulnerabilities

Read Time:54 Second

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-2024-6601,
CVE-2024-6604, CVE-2024-6607, CVE-2024-6608, CVE-2024-6610, CVE-2024-6611,
CVE-2024-6612, CVE-2024-6613, CVE-2024-6614, CVE-2024-6615)

It was discovered that Firefox did not properly manage certain memory
operations in the NSS. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to
cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-6602,
CVE-2024-6609)

Irvan Kurniawan discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory
during thread creation. An attacker could potentially exploit this
issue to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2024-6603)

It was discovered that Firefox incorrectly handled array accesses in the
clipboard 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-2024-6606)

Multiple Vulnerabilities in Mozilla Products Could Allow for Arbitrary Code Execution

Read Time:37 Second

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Mozilla Firefox is a web browser used to access the Internet. Mozilla Firefox ESR is a version of the web browser intended to be deployed in large organizations. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
