NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox package and not the firefox package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:12.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the nsTransformedTextRun function in Mozilla Firefox before 33.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.2, and Thunderbird 31.x before 31.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequences that trigger changes to capitalization style.
