Background

Mozilla Firefox is a popular open-source web browser from the Mozilla project.

Description

Invalid assumptions when emitting the the MCallGetProperty opcode in the JavaScript JIT may result in a use-after-free condition.

Impact

A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process, or cause a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

 # emerge --sync
 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/firefox-82.0.3"

All Mozilla Firefox (bin) users should upgrade to the latest version:

 # emerge --sync
 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
 ">=www-client/firefox-bin-78.4.1:0/esr78"
