CVE-2024-5701

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Firefox versions prior to 127

Description The issue is related to memory safety bugs, including buffer overflow, which can lead to memory corruption. It is presumed that with sufficient effort, some of these bugs could be exploited to run arbitrary code, allowing a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service.

Recommendations For versions prior to 127, update to version 127 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive data and minimizing the use of Firefox until the update is applied.
