    Thunderbird < 52.2. (CVE-2017-7752)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability with content viewer
    listeners that results in a potentially exploitable
    crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox
    ESR < 52.2, and Thunderbird < 52.2. (CVE-2017-7751)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability with the frameloader
    during tree reconstruction while regenerating CSS layout
    when attempting to use a node in the tree that no longer
    exists. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.
    This vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox ESR <
    52.2, and Thunderbird < 52.2. (CVE-2017-5472)

  - An out-of-bounds read in WebGL with a maliciously
    crafted ImageInfo object during WebGL operations. This
    vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox ESR < 52.2,
    and Thunderbird < 52.2. (CVE-2017-7754)

  - Memory safety bugs were reported in Firefox 53 and
    Firefox ESR 52.1. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox
    ESR < 52.2, and Thunderbird < 52.2. (CVE-2017-5470)

  - An out of bounds read flaw related to
    graphite2::Silf::readGraphite has been reported in
    graphite2. An attacker could possibly exploit this flaw
    to disclose potentially sensitive memory or cause an
    application crash. (CVE-2017-7774)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow flaw related to
    lz4::decompress (src/Decompressor) has been reported
    in graphite2. An attacker could exploit this issue to
    cause a crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2017-7773)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow flaw related to
    lz4::decompress has been reported in graphite2. An
    attacker could exploit this issue to cause a crash or,
    possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7772)

  - An out of bounds read flaw related to
    graphite2::Pass::readPass has been reported in
    graphite2. An attacker could possibly exploit this flaw
    to disclose potentially sensitive memory or cause an
    application crash. (CVE-2017-7771)

  - The use of uninitialized memory related to
    graphite2::GlyphCache::Loader::read_glyph has been
    reported in graphite2. An attacker could possibly
    exploit this flaw to negatively impact the execution of
    an application using graphite2 in unknown ways.
    (CVE-2017-7777)

  - An out of bounds read flaw related to
    graphite2::Silf::getClassGlyph has been reported in
    graphite2. An attacker could possibly exploit this flaw
    to disclose potentially sensitive memory or cause an
    application crash. (CVE-2017-7776)

  - Characters from the Canadian Syllabics unicode block
    can be mixed with characters from other unicode blocks
    in the addressbar instead of being rendered as their raw
    punycode form, allowing for domain name spoofing
    attacks through character confusion. The current Unicode
    standard allows characters from Aspirational Use
    Scripts such as Canadian Syllabics to be mixed with
    Latin characters in the moderately restrictive IDN
    profile. We have changed Firefox behavior to match the
    upcoming Unicode version 10.0 which removes this
    category and treats them as Limited Use Scripts.. This
    vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox ESR < 52.2,
    and Thunderbird < 52.2. (CVE-2017-7764)

  - Memory safety bugs were reported in Firefox 52, Firefox
    ESR 45.8, Firefox ESR 52, and Thunderbird 52. 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. This vulnerability
    affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox ESR < 45.9, Firefox
    ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53. (CVE-2017-5429)

  - A vulnerability while parsing application/http-index-
    format format content where uninitialized values are
    used to create an array. This could allow the reading of
    uninitialized memory into the arrays affected. This
    vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox ESR <
    45.9, Firefox ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53.
    (CVE-2017-5445)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability during XSLT processing
    due to a failure to propagate error conditions during
    matching while evaluating context, leading to objects
    being used when they no longer exist. This results in a
    potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability
    affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox ESR < 45.9, Firefox
    ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53. (CVE-2017-5440)

  - An out-of-bounds write in the Graphite 2 library
    triggered with a maliciously crafted Graphite font. This
    results in a potentially exploitable crash. This issue
    was fixed in the Graphite 2 library as well as Mozilla
    products. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.1,
    Firefox ESR < 45.9, Firefox ESR < 52.1, and Firefox <
    53. (CVE-2017-5436)

  - A flaw was found in the processing of malformed web
    content. A web page containing malicious content could
    cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute
    arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
    Firefox. (CVE-2017-5428)
