CVE-2016-1944

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 44.0

Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the Buffer11::NativeBuffer11::map function in ANGLE, used in Mozilla Firefox. This could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, resulting in memory corruption, or possibly have other unspecified impacts.

Recommendations For versions prior to 44.0, update to version 44.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Buffer11::NativeBuffer11::map function until a patch is available.
