CVE-2017-7755
Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—
El instalador de Firefox en Windows puede cargar archivos DLL maliciosos almacenados en el mismo directorio que el instalador cuando se ejecuta. Esto permite la ejecución con privilegios si el instalador se ejecuta con privilegios elevados. Nota: este ataque solo afecta a sistemas operativos Windows. Otros sistemas operativos no se han visto afectados. La vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox en versiones anteriores a la 54, Firefox ESR en versiones anteriores a la 52.2 y Thunderbird en versiones anteriores a la 52.2.
