Buffer overflow in gfxTextRun::BreakAndMeasureText.  Looks dangerous.  Can be triggered remotely if it happens in page rendering.

Comment 3 Martin Stransky 2011-12-07 13:31:37 UTC
We're using mozilla crash reporter now, ABRT is no more used for Firefox/Thunderbird. If you can reliably reproduce the crash (you have a testcase, reproduction steps, etc.) please reopen the bug and attach the reproduction info and assign it directly to me (stransky).

Thanks!
