CVE-2021-23988
Estado: ModificadaAlta (8.8)—
Los desarrolladores de Mozilla, reportaron bugs de seguridad de la memoria presentes en Firefox versión 86. Algunos de estos bugs mostraron evidencia de corrupción de la memoria y suponemos que con suficiente esfuerzo algunos de ellos podrían haber sido explotados para ejecutar código arbitrario. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox versiones anteriores a 87.
