DescriptionCVE.org

Race condition, use-after-free in the Graphics: WebRender component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 149, Firefox ESR < 115.34, and Firefox ESR < 140.9.

AnalysisAI

Mozilla Firefox's WebRender graphics component contains a race condition and use-after-free vulnerability that enables remote code execution when a user visits a malicious webpage. The flaw affects Firefox versions prior to 149, Firefox ESR versions before 115.34 and 140.9, and requires user interaction to trigger. No patch is currently available for this high-severity issue.

Technical ContextAI

WebRender is Mozilla's GPU-accelerated rendering engine used in Firefox to handle graphics composition and display. The vulnerability is classified as a race condition combined with use-after-free (CWE categories related to concurrency and memory safety), indicating that improper synchronization during parallel rendering operations allows a thread to access memory that has already been freed. This occurs within the graphics rendering pipeline where multiple threads may be accessing the same data structures without adequate locking mechanisms. The affected products span multiple Firefox branches: the mainline Firefox (cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) and two Extended Support Release tracks—Firefox ESR 115.x and Firefox ESR 140.x—each with their own maintenance timelines.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade to Firefox version 149 or later for users on the mainline branch, Firefox ESR version 115.34 or later for the ESR 115 branch, or Firefox ESR version 140.9 or later for the ESR 140 branch. Most users have automatic updates enabled and will receive these fixes automatically; administrators managing Firefox deployments should verify completion of updates through browser version checks or MDM/device management platforms. Organizations unable to patch immediately should consider restricting Firefox usage to low-risk activities and disabling WebRender hardware acceleration if technically feasible (via about:config setting gfx.webrender.enabled to false), though this may impact performance.
