This may allow a context-dependent attacker to cause a buffer overflow and potentially execute arbitrary code within a process linked against the library.
 - A flaw exists in the 'EditorBase::FinalizeSelection()' function in 'editor/libeditor/EditorBase.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
 - A flaw exists in the 'DocAccessible::DoARIAOwnsRelocation()' function in 'accessible/generic/DocAccessible.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
 - An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. No further details have been provided by the vendor.
 - A use-after-free condition exists in the Fetch API related to missing thread safety. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.

 - A use-after-free error exists in design mode that is triggered when objects are resized. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
 - A use-after-free error exists in the 'ssl3_HandleCertificateVerify()' function in 'lib/ssl/ssl3con.c' that is triggered when handling handshake hashes during TLS '1.2' exchanges. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
 - A flaw exists that is triggered as the content principal is not properly checked when handling drag and drop actions onto the browser UI. With specially crafted web content including file: URLs, a context-dependent attacker can open local files.
 - A flaw exists in the PendingLookup class in 'toolkit/components/downloads/ApplicationReputation.cpp' that is triggered when handling downloads encoded with data: and blob: URL elements. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to bypass the phishing and malware protection feature.
 - An integer truncation flaw exists in the JavaScript parser that may allow a context-dependent attacker to potentially disclose memory contents.
 - A flaw exists in the 'MacOSFontEntry::ReadCMAP()' function in 'gfx/thebes/gfxMacPlatformFontList.mm' that is triggered as certain tibetan and arabic unicode characters are displayed as whitespace in combination with macOS fonts. With a specially crafted IDN domain, a context-dependent attacker can spoof a valid URL and conduct phishing attacks.
 - A flaw exists that is triggered when creating a modal dialog using the data: protocol via JavaScript. With a specially crafted web page, a context-dependent attacker can spoof the origin of the modal dialog.
 - A flaw exists in the WebExtensions component that is triggered when handling popups and panels in the extension UI. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to load an 'about:' URL.
 - A flaw exists in the WebExtensions component that is triggered when handling file downloads. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to download and open files without user interaction.
 - A flaw exists in the 'nsDocument::InitCSP()' function in 'dom/base/nsDocument.cpp' that is triggered as the sandbox directive does not create unique origin. This may result in incorrect enforcement of the content security policy (CSP).
 - A flaw exists in the WebCrypto API that is triggered as the AES-GCM implementation allows a zero-length IV. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to determine the authentication key.
 - A flaw exists that is is triggered as results of the 'instanceof' operator can be manipulated. With specially crafted web content, a context-dependent attacker can bypass the Xray wrapper mechanism.
 - An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered when drawing and validating elements with the ANGLE graphics library. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to cause a buffer overflow, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code.
 - A flaw exists related to speculative execution, which is used as a performance feature to speed up operations. This optimization can result in memory being cached during indirect branch prediction. This may allow a local attacker to train the Branch Target Buffer (BTB) to trigger a false prediction to a specially crafted memory location, causing a speculative execution of a crafted gadget and the caching of arbitrary memory. Using a side-channel attack on the cache the attacker can disclose parts of the privileged kernel memory.
