Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Resource Management Errors. The JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.9, Thunderbird before 2.0.0.22, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly trigger memory corruption via vectors involving JSOP_DEFVAR and properties that lack the JSPROP_PERMANENT attribute.
