  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"CVE-2019-11746: Use-after-free while manipulating video
A use-after-free vulnerability can occur while manipulating video elements if the body is freed while still in use. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2019-11744: XSS by breaking out of title and textarea elements using innerHTML
Some HTML elements, such as <title> and <textarea>, can contain literal angle brackets without treating them as markup. It is possible to pass a literal closing tag to .innerHTML on these elements, and subsequent content after that will be parsed as if it were outside the tag. This can lead to XSS if a site does not filter user input as strictly for these elements as it does for other elements.

CVE-2019-11742: Same-origin policy violation with SVG filters and canvas to steal cross-origin images
A same-origin policy violation occurs allowing the theft of cross-origin images through a combination of SVG filters and a <canvas> element due to an error in how same-origin policy is applied to cached image content. The resulting same-origin policy violation could allow for data theft.

CVE-2019-11753: Privilege escalation with Mozilla Maintenance Service in custom Firefox installation location
The Firefox installer allows Firefox to be installed to a custom user writable location, leaving it unprotected from manipulation by unprivileged users or malware. If the Mozilla Maintenance Service is manipulated to update this unprotected location and the updated maintenance service in the unprotected location has been altered, the altered maintenance service can run with elevated privileges during the update process due to a lack of integrity checks. This allows for privilege escalation if the executable has been replaced ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]");
