CVE-2009-1392: Code Injection

First published: Mon Jun 01 2009(Updated: )

Mozilla developers and community members identified and fixed several stability bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these crashes showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. Bob Clary, Jesse Ruderman, Alexander Sack, Bret McMillan, Tomeo Vizoso, Matt McCutchen, and Martijn Wargers reported crashes in the Firefox 3 browser engine.
