Recent Mozilla Focus Security Vulnerabilities
Mozilla developers Randell Jesup
CVE-2023-29551
8.8 - High
- June 02, 2023
Mozilla developers Randell Jesup, Andrew McCreight, Gabriele Svelto, and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 111. 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 for Android < 112, Firefox < 112, and Focus for Android < 112.

CVE-2023-29547
6.5 - Medium
- June 02, 2023
When a secure cookie existed in the Firefox cookie jar an insecure cookie for the same domain could have been created, when it should have silently failed. This could have led to a desynchronization in expected results when reading from the secure cookie. This vulnerability affects Firefox for Android < 112, Firefox < 112, and Focus for Android < 112.
If multiple instances of resource exhaustion occurred at the incorrect time
CVE-2023-29544

- June 02, 2023
If multiple instances of resource exhaustion occurred at the incorrect time, the garbage collector could have caused memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox for Android < 112, Firefox < 112, and Focus for Android < 112.
Resource Exhaustion
An attacker could have caused memory corruption and a potentially exploitable use-after-free of a pointer in a global object's debugger vector
CVE-2023-29543
8.8 - High
- June 02, 2023
An attacker could have caused memory corruption and a potentially exploitable use-after-free of a pointer in a global object's debugger vector. This vulnerability affects Firefox for Android < 112, Firefox < 112, and Focus for Android < 112.
