These security issues were fixed:
- CVE-2015-4509: Use-after-free vulnerability in the HTMLVideoElement
interface in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before
38.3 allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted
JavaScript code that modifies the URI table of a media element, aka
ZDI-CAN-3176 (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-4520: Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before
38.3 allowed remote attackers to bypass CORS preflight protection
mechanisms by leveraging (1) duplicate cache-key generation or (2)
retrieval of a value from an incorrect HTTP Access-Control-* response
header (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-4521: The ConvertDialogOptions function in Mozilla Firefox
before 41.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.3 might allow remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and
application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown
vectors (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-4522: The nsUnicodeToUTF8::GetMaxLength function in Mozilla
Firefox before 41.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.3 might allow
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and
application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown
vectors, related to an 'overflow (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-4500: Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser
engine in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.3
allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption
and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown
vectors (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-4511: Heap-based buffer overflow in the
nestegg_track_codec_data function in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 and
Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.3 allowed remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via a crafted header in a WebM video (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-7178: The ProgramBinary::linkAttributes function in libGLES in
ANGLE, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x
before 38.3 on Windows, mishandles shader access, which allowed remote
attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory
corruption and application crash) via crafted (1) OpenGL or (2) WebGL
content (bsc#947003).
- CVE-2015-7179: The VertexBufferInterface::reserveVertexSpace function in
libGLES in ANGLE, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 41.0 and Firefox ESR
38.x before 38.3 on Windows, incorrectly allocates memory for shader
attribute arrays, which allowed remote attackers to execute arbitra ...
