MetricsAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 37.0
Description The issue is related to the HTMLSourceElement::AfterSetAttr function, which does not properly constrain the original data type of a casted value during the setting of a SOURCE element's attributes. This allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted HTML document.
Recommendations For versions prior to 37.0, update to version 37.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to HTML documents from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
