USN-6010-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update introduced several minor regressions. This update fixes the problem.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Original advisory details:
Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-29537, CVE-2023-29540, CVE-2023-29543, CVE-2023-29544, CVE-2023-29547, CVE-2023-29548, CVE-2023-29549, CVE-2023-29550, CVE-2023-29551)
Irvan Kurniawan discovered that Firefox did not properly manage fullscreen notifications using a combination of window.open, fullscreen requests, window.name assignments, and setInterval calls. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to perform spoofing attacks. (CVE-2023-29533)
Lukas Bernhard discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when doing Garbage Collector compaction. An attacker could potentially exploits this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2023-29535)
Zx from qriousec discovered that Firefox did not properly validate the address to free a pointer provided to the memory manager. An attacker could potentially exploits this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2023-29536)
Alexis aka zoracon discovered that Firefox did not properly validate the URI received by the WebExtension during a load request. An attacker could potentially exploits this to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2023-29538)
Trung Pham discovered that Firefox did not properly validate the filename directive in the Content-Disposition header. An attacker could possibly exploit this to perform reflected file download attacks potentially tricking users to install malware. (CVE-2023-29539)
Ameen Basha M K discovered that Firefox did not properly validate downloads of files ending in .desktop. An attacker could potentially exploits this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-29541)
