The installed version of Firefox is earlier than 3.5.15. Such versions are potentially affected by a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability.

The combination of DOM insertions and the handling of the JavaScript function β€˜document.write()’ exposes an error that can lead to a heap-based buffer overflow.

Note that there have been reports that this issue is being actively exploited in the wild.
