CVE-2015-7219  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-189  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:15.10 firefox to version 43.0+build1-0ubuntu0.15.10.1 or higher.

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:15.10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The HTTP/2 implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer underflow, assertion failure, and application exit) via a malformed PushPromise frame that triggers decompressed-buffer length miscalculation and incorrect memory allocation.
