discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked
in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially
exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox.
(CVE-2016-2804, CVE-2016-2806, CVE-2016-2807)
An invalid write was discovered when using the JavaScript .watch() method in
some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted
website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of
service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2016-2808)
Looben Yang discovered a use-after-free and buffer overflow in service
workers. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website,
an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service
via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2016-2811, CVE-2016-2812)
Sascha Just discovered a buffer overflow in libstagefright in some
circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted
website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of
service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2016-2814)
Muneaki Nishimura discovered that CSP is not applied correctly to web
content sent with the multipart/x-mixed-replace MIME type. An attacker
could potentially exploit this to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS)
attacks when they would otherwise be prevented. (CVE-2016-2816)
Muneaki Nishimura discovered that the chrome.tabs.update API for web
extensions allows for navigation to javascript: URLs. A malicious
extension could potentially exploit this to conduct cross-site scripting
(XSS) attacks. (CVE-2016-2817)
Mark Goodwin discovered that about:healthreport accepts certain events
from any content present in the remote-report iframe. If another
vulnerability allowed the injection of web content in the remote-report
iframe, an attacker could potentially exploit this to change the user's
sharing preferences. (CVE-2016-2820)");
