DescriptionCVE.org

Uninitialized memory in the Graphics: Canvas2D component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 149 and Firefox ESR < 140.9.

AnalysisAI

An uninitialized memory vulnerability exists in Firefox and Firefox ESR's Graphics Canvas2D component that can lead to information disclosure. Firefox versions prior to 149 and Firefox ESR versions prior to 140.9 are affected. An attacker can exploit this by crafting malicious Canvas2D operations to read uninitialized memory contents from the graphics rendering pipeline, potentially exposing sensitive data from the browser process.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in the Canvas2D graphics rendering component of the Gecko engine used by Mozilla Firefox. Canvas2D is a Web API that allows web pages to draw graphics via JavaScript, implemented through the Graphics subsystem. The root cause is classified as CWE (uninitialized memory), indicating that memory buffers used during Canvas2D operations are not properly initialized before use. This allows an attacker-controlled script running in a web context to access residual data from previous allocations. The affected products are identified via CPE as cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox and cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox_esr, affecting the entire product families below specified version thresholds.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade Mozilla Firefox to version 149 or later, and Firefox ESR to version 140.9 or later. Users unable to immediately patch should avoid visiting untrusted websites and consider disabling JavaScript in the browser settings as a temporary measure, though this significantly limits functionality. Administrators managing Firefox deployments should enable automatic updates through Group Policy (Windows) or Firefox policies.json (cross-platform) to ensure rapid patching. Verify the upgrade by checking About Firefox and confirming the version number meets the minimum requirements specified in the security advisories at https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-20/ and https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-22/.
