CVE-2021-38499

Estado: ModificadaAlta (8.8)—

Los desarrolladores de Mozilla informaron de bugs de seguridad de memoria presentes en Firefox versión 92. Algunos de estos bugs mostraban evidencias de corrupción de 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 93
