Network-delivered via crafted web media so AV:N/AC:L/PR:N, but browser exploitation needs the victim to render the page (UI:R); impact is memory disclosure only, hence C:H/I:N/A:N.

DescriptionCVE.org

Incorrect boundary conditions in the Audio/Video: Web Codecs component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 151, Firefox ESR 115.36, and Firefox ESR 140.11.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds memory access in the Firefox Web Codecs (Audio/Video) component allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive process memory by serving a specially crafted media stream to a victim's browser. Rated CVSS 7.5 with a confidentiality-only impact (C:H/I:N/A:N), it affects Firefox before 151 and the ESR 115.x and 140.x branches; a vendor patch is available and it carries no public exploit and a negligible EPSS score (0.04%), with CISA SSVC recording no observed exploitation.

Technical ContextAI

The flaw lives in the WebCodecs implementation, the browser API that gives web pages low-level access to individual audio and video frame encoders/decoders. CWE-119 (Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer) is the root-cause class, and the description's 'incorrect boundary conditions' phrasing combined with a confidentiality-only CVSS impact points to an out-of-bounds read rather than a write-driven code-execution bug. Codec parsing in C++ media pipelines is a classic source of boundary errors because attacker-controlled length/offset fields drive buffer indexing; here a malformed stream can push a read past the intended buffer boundary. The affected component is captured by the CPE cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* (all Firefox versions prior to the fixed releases).

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Firefox 151, Firefox ESR 115.36, or Firefox ESR 140.11, whichever matches your deployed channel, per Mozilla advisories MFSA2026-46/47/48/50/51 (https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-46/). Enterprises on the rapid-release channel should take Firefox 151; those pinned to extended support must move to the corresponding ESR fix. On Linux, apply your distribution's rebuilt package - for example SUSE-SU-2026:2039 (https://www.suse.com/support/update/SUSE-SU-2026:2039/) or the Red Hat errata RHSA-2026:21378 through RHSA-2026:22643 (https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:21378). No standalone workaround is published; because the bug is in the WebCodecs media path, an interim compensating control is to restrict or block untrusted web content that exercises hardware/software media decoding (for example via enterprise policy or a proxy that filters unknown media), accepting that this can break legitimate video/audio playback and streaming sites.
