    memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run
    arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-16412)

  - Denial-of-service in the Graphics: WebGPU component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 153.

  - Incorrect boundary conditions in the Audio/Video: GMP component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox
    153, Firefox ESR 115.38, and Firefox ESR 140.13. (CVE-2026-16359)

  - Site isolation issue in the Graphics component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 153.
