    that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability
    affects Firefox < 149.0.2, Firefox ESR < 115.34.1, Firefox ESR < 140.9.1, Thunderbird < 149.0.2, and

    Incorrect boundary conditions, integer overflow in the Graphics: Text component. This vulnerability
