  - Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 146 and Thunderbird 146. Some of these bugs showed evidence of
    memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run
    arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-0892)

  - Sandbox escape in the Messaging System component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 147 and Thunderbird
    < 147. (CVE-2026-0881)

  - Mitigation bypass in the DOM: Security component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 147, Firefox ESR <
    115.32, Firefox ESR < 140.7, Thunderbird < 147, and Thunderbird < 140.7. (CVE-2026-0877)

  - Sandbox escape due to incorrect boundary conditions in the Graphics: CanvasWebGL component. This
    vulnerability affects Firefox < 147, Firefox ESR < 140.7, Thunderbird < 147, and Thunderbird < 140.7.
