Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionNVD
Use-after-free in the Layout: Text and Fonts component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 149, Firefox ESR < 115.34, and Firefox ESR < 140.9.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated remote attackers can achieve arbitrary code execution through a use-after-free memory corruption vulnerability in Firefox's text and font rendering engine, affecting Firefox versions below 149, ESR below 115.34, and ESR below 140.9. The vulnerability requires no user interaction or special privileges and allows complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No patch is currently available.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in Firefox's text and font rendering subsystem, which is responsible for parsing, measuring, and displaying font data and text layout operations. Use-after-free vulnerabilities occur when memory is accessed after it has been deallocated, typically when an object's lifecycle management fails or when reference counting is incorrect. In the context of text rendering, this could manifest when font objects, glyph caches, or text layout structures are freed prematurely while still referenced by active rendering operations. The affected products identified via CPE are Mozilla Firefox (all versions) and Mozilla Firefox ESR (all versions), with the ESR branches maintaining separate version tracks for extended support customers. The root cause falls under CWE categories related to improper memory management and use-after-free conditions common in C/C++ rendering engines.
RemediationAI
Immediately upgrade Mozilla Firefox to version 149 or later, and upgrade Firefox ESR installations to version 115.34 or later (for the ESR 115 branch) or version 140.9 or later (for the ESR 140 branch). Automated update mechanisms in Firefox will deploy patched versions; manual updates are available through the Help menu (Firefox menu > Help > About Firefox) or from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/. For enterprise environments using Firefox ESR, deploy updates via your standard patch management processes and verify update completion across all endpoints. Users who cannot immediately patch should consider temporarily restricting Firefox usage to trusted websites only and disabling JavaScript for untrusted content as a temporary mitigation, though patching remains the only reliable fix. Review the detailed advisories at https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-20/, https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-21/, and https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-22/ for any additional guidance.
