Security vulnerabilities fixed in Firefox ESR 60.2 — Mozilla

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when refresh driver timers are refreshed in some circumstances during shutdown when the timer is deleted while still in use. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.
A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when an IndexedDB index is deleted while still in use by JavaScript code that is providing payload values to be stored. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.
A same-origin policy violation allowing the theft of cross-origin URL entries when using a meta http-equiv=“refresh” on a page to cause a redirection to another site using performance.getEntries(). This is a same-origin policy violation and could allow for data theft.
When the Mozilla Updater opens a MAR format file which contains a very long item filename, an out-of-bounds write can be triggered, leading to a potentially exploitable crash. This requires running the Mozilla Updater manually on the local system with the malicious MAR file in order to occur.
Browser proxy settings can be bypassed by using the automount feature with autofs to create a mount point on the local file system. Content can be loaded from this mounted file system directly using a file: URI, bypassing configured proxy settings. Note: this issue only affects OS X in default configurations. On Linux systems, autofs must be installed for the vulnerability to occur and Windows is not affected.
Manually dragging and dropping an Outlook email message into the browser will trigger a page navigation when the message’s mail columns are incorrectly interpreted as a URL. Note: this issue only affects Windows operating systems with Outlook installed. Other operating systems are not affected.
Mozilla developers and community members Alex Gaynor, Boris Zbarsky, Christoph Diehl, Christian Holler, Jason Kratzer, Jed Davis, Tyson Smith, Bogdan Tara, Karl Tomlinson, Mats Palmgren, Nika Layzell, Ted Campbell, and Andrei Cristian Petcu reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 61 and Firefox ESR 60.1. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code.
