CVE-2025-4091: Vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox
Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 137, Thunderbird 137, Firefox ESR 128.9, and Thunderbird 128.9. 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 138, Firefox ESR 128.10, Thunderbird 138, and Thunderbird 128.10.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves multiple memory safety bugs in Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird versions prior to Firefox 138 and ESR 128.10. The bugs include evidence of memory corruption, which under certain conditions could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. These issues were addressed and fixed in the subsequent releases Firefox 138, Firefox ESR 128.10, Thunderbird 138, and Thunderbird 128.10. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.1, reflecting high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vendor advisory explicitly states the fixes and provides references to the bugs and patches.
