NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox package and not the firefox package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Stack-based buffer underflow in the mozilla::gfx::BasePoint4d function in Mozilla Firefox before 48.0 and Firefox ESR 45.x before 45.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted two-dimensional graphics data that is mishandled during clipping-region calculations.
