AI Analysis

Impact

A race condition exists in the graphics rendering layer of Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird that can cause memory corruption or unintended state changes during rendering. The vulnerability is classified as CWE‑362 and CWE‑366. Based on the description, it is inferred that an attacker might exploit this condition to execute arbitrary code by scripting malicious content that triggers rendering.

Affected Systems

Affected products include Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 145, including all ESR releases older than 140.5 and 115.30, as well as Mozilla Thunderbird versions prior to 145 and older than 140.5.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.5 indicates a high severity issue. The EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests a low probability of widespread exploitation at present, and the flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, it is inferred that the most likely attack vector involves delivering malicious content—such as a web page or email—that triggers graphics rendering, potentially allowing local or remote code execution if the race condition is successfully triggered during rendering.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Firefox to version 145 or newer, or to Firefox ESR 140.5/115.30, and update Thunderbird to version 145 or newer or to 140.5, as these releases contain the fix.
  • If updating immediately is not possible, disable GPU acceleration by setting layers.acceleration.disabled to true in Firefox’s about:config (or the equivalent setting in Thunderbird), then restart the application.
  • Ensure that no older or unpatched copies of Firefox or Thunderbird remain in use on your system to prevent exploitation of the race condition.
