Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2020-04-11 23:33:30 UTC
CVE-2020-6815 (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-6815):
  Mozilla developers reported memory safety and script safety bugs present in
  Firefox 73. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption or
  escalation of privilege and we presume that with enough effort some of these
  could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects
  Firefox < 74.

CVE-2020-6801 (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-6801):
  Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 72. 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.
  This vulnerability affects Firefox < 73.
