NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox-esr package and not the firefox-esr package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

The TSymbolTableLevel class in ANGLE, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 47.0 and Firefox ESR 45.x before 45.2 on Windows, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering use of a WebGL shader that writes to an array.
