DescriptionCVE.org

Use-after-free in the JavaScript: WebAssembly component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 150.0.3.

AnalysisAI

Memory corruption in Mozilla Firefox's WebAssembly JavaScript engine component allows remote attackers to trigger a use-after-free condition via crafted web content, with limited impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The flaw affects Firefox versions prior to 150.0.3 and has no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though SSVC indicates the issue is automatable. EPSS scoring (0.02%, 5th percentile) suggests very low near-term exploitation probability despite the network-reachable attack vector.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in Firefox's WebAssembly (Wasm) implementation inside the SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine, which compiles and executes low-level bytecode delivered from web pages. CWE-416 (Use-After-Free) indicates that the Wasm component references memory after it has been freed, typically due to incorrect object lifetime management during compilation, garbage collection interaction, or instance teardown. The CPE (cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox:*) confirms the desktop browser is in scope, and tags referencing Red Hat and SUSE indicate downstream Linux distribution rebuilds inherit the flaw. Use-after-free in browser JIT/Wasm code historically enables type confusion and controlled memory reuse that can escalate from information disclosure to code execution under the right heap-grooming conditions.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Firefox 150.0.3 - upgrade affected installations immediately by consulting MFSA2026-45 at https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-45/ and the NVD entry at https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-8390. Enterprise deployments using Red Hat or SUSE-packaged Firefox should apply the corresponding distribution security update once published. As a temporary compensating control until patching is complete, administrators can disable WebAssembly in about:config by setting javascript.options.wasm to false, which eliminates the vulnerable code path but will break sites that depend on Wasm (including some productivity, gaming, and crypto applications); alternatively, network-level controls can restrict browsing to allowlisted internal sites to reduce drive-by exposure, at the cost of broad usability impact.
