Remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity media flaw, but a browser must render attacker content, so UI:R; memory corruption yields high C/I/A within the content process.

News Critical Integer Overflow RCE in Mozilla Firefox Audio/Video - CVE-2026-16395 Jul 22, 2026

AnalysisAI

Memory-corruption via an integer overflow in Mozilla Firefox's Audio/Video component allows remote attackers to compromise the browser when a victim processes attacker-controlled media, with the CVSS 9.8 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) indicating unauthenticated network exploitation and high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The flaw was fixed in Firefox 153 per Mozilla advisory MFSA2026-68. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

The root cause is CWE-190 (Integer Overflow or Wraparound) within Firefox's Audio/Video subsystem, which decodes and processes media streams (containers, codecs, and audio/video sample buffers). An arithmetic operation on attacker-influenced values (such as sample counts, frame dimensions, or buffer sizes) wraps past the maximum integer bound, producing an undersized allocation or incorrect bounds check that leads to an out-of-bounds/heap buffer overflow - consistent with the 'Buffer Overflow' and 'Integer Overflow' tags supplied. The single affected product per CPE is cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, i.e. the Firefox browser itself; media parsing runs largely within the content process, making this component a recurring, high-value attack surface reachable purely through web content.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Firefox 153 - upgrade all Firefox installations to version 153 or later, which contains the fix per Mozilla advisory MFSA2026-68 (https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-68/). Because Firefox auto-updates, verify the update has actually applied in managed/enterprise fleets (check Help > About Firefox) and confirm any pinned or offline deployments are advanced to 153. If patching must be deferred, compensating controls include restricting untrusted web browsing and, where feasible, disabling or restricting media playback/autoplay to reduce exposure of the Audio/Video parsing path, and enabling stricter content controls; note these degrade the browsing experience and do not fully close the attack surface, so they are stopgaps only until 153 is deployed. The bug report at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2047221 provides additional context.
