potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service.

Johan Carlsson discovered that Firefox incorrectly handled Set-Cookie
response headers in multipart HTTP responses. An attacker could
potentially exploit this issue to inject arbitrary cookie values.
(CVE-2024-1551)
Gary Kwong discovered that Firefox incorrectly generated codes on 32-bit
ARM devices, which could lead to unexpected numeric conversions or
undefined behaviour. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a
denial of service. (CVE-2024-1552)

this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-1556)");
