Description Doran Moppert 2021-05-24 04:21:17 UTC
Mozilla developers Christian Holler, Sebastian Hengst, Bogdan Tara, and Tyson Smith reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 81. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code.
