Mozilla has released official patches fixing these memory safety bugs in Firefox 136, Thunderbird 136, Firefox ESR 128.8, and Thunderbird 128.8.

Description

Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 135, Thunderbird 135, Firefox ESR 128.7, and Thunderbird 128.7. 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 code. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 136, Firefox ESR 128.8, Thunderbird 136, and Thunderbird 128.8.
