An issue present in lowering/register allocation could have led to obscure but deterministic register confusion failures in JITted code that would lead to a potentially exploitable crash.
CVE-2021-29988: Memory corruption as a result of incorrect style treatment
Firefox incorrectly treated an inline list-item element as a block element, resulting in an out of bounds read or memory corruption, and a potentially exploitable crash.
CVE-2021-29984: Incorrect instruction reordering during JIT optimization
Instruction reordering resulted in a sequence of instructions that would cause an object to be incorrectly considered during garbage collection. This led to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash.
CVE-2021-29980: Uninitialized memory in a canvas object could have led to memory corruption
Uninitialized memory in a canvas object could have caused an incorrect free() leading to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash.
CVE-2021-29982: Single bit data leak due to incorrect JIT optimization and type confusion
Due to incorrect JIT optimization, we incorrectly interpreted data from the wrong type of object, resulting in the potential leak of a single bit of memory.
CVE-2021-29989: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 91 and Firefox ESR 78.13
Mozilla developers Christoph Kerschbaumer, Olli Pettay, Sandor Molnar, and Simon Giesecke reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 90 and Firefox ESR 78.12. 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 ...
