Arbitrary code execution via memory corruption
Published Mar 19, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Memory corruption in Mozilla Firefox before 124, Firefox ESR before 115.9, and Thunderbird before 115.9 allows attackers to run arbitrary code. The four underlying memory-safety defects show evidence of memory corruption, but Mozilla has not disclosed their affected code loci or unsafe operations. Trigger details are not public; in Thunderbird, email messages cannot generally reach these flaws because scripting is disabled while mail is read, limiting exposure to browser-like contexts.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=0 <124
- Affected versionversion=unspecified <124
