CVE-2010-1212

Published: 23 July 2010

js/src/jstracer.cpp in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.6.x before 3.6.7 and Thunderbird 3.1.x before 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to (1) propagation of deep aborts in the TraceRecorder::record_JSOP_BINDNAME function, (2) depth handling in the TraceRecorder::record_JSOP_GETELEM function, and (3) tracing of out-of-range arguments in the TraceRecorder::record_JSOP_ARGSUB function.

xulrunner (1.8.1): firefox (2.0) - Ubuntu 6.10 - 8.04 LTS (system xul)
xulrunner-1.9: (ignored) reverse dependencies no longer process web content
xulrunner-1.9.1: (ignored) reverese dependencies no longer process web content
xulrunner-1.9.2: system xul for reverese dependencies that process web content
firefox: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (static build)
firefox: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and higher (static build of 3.6.x or higher)
firefox-3.0: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, 9.04 (static build of 3.6.x)
