CVE-2020-12396
First published: Tue May 05 2020(Updated: )
Mozilla developers and community members Frederik Braun, Andrew McCreight, C.M.Chang, and Dan Minor reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 75. 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.
