The following CVEs affect all products:

CVE-2024-5688:

If a garbage collection was triggered at the right time, a use-after-free could have occurred during object transplant.


CVE-2024-5690:

By monitoring the time certain operations take, an attacker could have guessed which external protocol handlers were functional on a user's system.


CVE-2024-5691:

By tricking the browser with a X-Frame-Options header, a sandboxed iframe could have presented a button that, if clicked by a user, would bypass restrictions to open a new window.


CVE-2024-5693:

Offscreen Canvas did not properly track cross-origin tainting, which could be used to access image data from another site in violation of same-origin policy.


CVE-2024-5696:

By manipulating the text in an <input> tag, an attacker could have caused corrupt memory leading to a potentially exploitable crash.


CVE-2024-5700:

Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 126, Firefox ESR 115.11, and Thunderbird 115.11. 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.


Please refer to the blocking bugs for the package-specific CVEs.
