HIGH 7.5

DescriptionCVE.org

Denial-of-service due to invalid pointer in the Audio/Video: Web Codecs component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 151 and Firefox ESR 140.11.

AnalysisAI

Denial-of-service in Mozilla Firefox's Web Codecs (Audio/Video) component allows a remote attacker to crash the browser via an invalid pointer, triggered by loading crafted media content with no authentication or user interaction. The flaw is fixed in Firefox 151 and Firefox ESR 140.11; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.04%), consistent with SSVC rating exploitation as none.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability lives in the WebCodecs implementation, the browser API that gives JavaScript low-level access to audio and video encoders/decoders and raw frames. An invalid pointer dereference in this native media-processing path leads to a memory-safety fault. The CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption) classification, combined with the availability-only CVSS impact (C:N/I:N/A:H), indicates the defect manifests as a crash/resource-exhaustion condition rather than code execution or data disclosure. Affected code is Mozilla's Gecko engine (cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox), shipped in the mainline Firefox and the ESR long-term-support branch, and repackaged by downstream Linux distributors such as SUSE and Red Hat.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Firefox 151 or Firefox ESR 140.11, which contain the fix. Linux users on SUSE should apply the distribution update SUSE-SU-2026:2039 (https://www.suse.com/support/update/SUSE-SU-2026:2039/), and Red Hat users should apply the corresponding vendor errata; consult Mozilla advisories at https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-50/ and mfsa2026-51/ for details. If patching must be deferred, a targeted compensating control is to disable the WebCodecs API surface where policy permits (for managed fleets, restrict or lock down media/JavaScript execution on untrusted sites via enterprise policy) - note this may break legitimate video-conferencing and streaming sites that rely on WebCodecs, so it is a temporary measure only until the browser is updated.
