DescriptionCVE.org

Use-after-free in the JavaScript: GC component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 154 and Firefox ESR 153.1.

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in Mozilla Firefox's JavaScript garbage collector (GC) component enables remote code execution when a victim visits a malicious webpage. All Firefox versions prior to 154 and Firefox ESR versions prior to 153.1 are affected across multiple product lines, as indicated by four separate Mozilla Security Advisories (MFSA2026-74, -77, -78, -80). …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Attacker hosts malicious page with crafted JavaScript
Delivery
Victim clicks phishing link or visits compromised site in unpatched Firefox
Exploit
JavaScript manipulates heap layout and triggers GC cycle
Execution
GC frees live object, leaving dangling pointer (UAF)
Persist
Dereferenced freed memory corrupts heap
Impact
Arbitrary code execution within Firefox renderer process

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires passive user interaction (UI:R): a victim must open a malicious or attacker-influenced webpage in an unpatched version of Firefox (prior to 154 / ESR 153.1). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H yields a score of 8.8 and accurately characterizes a browser-based UAF: network-reachable, low exploitation complexity, no privileges required, but dependent on a user visiting an attacker-controlled page (UI:R). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker registers a domain and hosts a webpage containing crafted JavaScript that manipulates the Firefox heap before triggering a GC cycle, causing the GC to free a live object and leaving a dangling pointer. When an unpatched Firefox user visits the page - via a phishing link, malvertising, or a compromised site - the dereferenced freed memory region is used to overwrite function pointers or control-flow data, achieving code execution within the Firefox renderer process. …
Remediation Upgrade Mozilla Firefox to version 154 or later, and Firefox ESR to version 153.1 or later - these are the vendor-confirmed fixed releases per Mozilla's advisories (https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-74/ and https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/mfsa2026-77/). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Issue a security alert advising users to avoid suspicious websites and defer non-critical browsing to alternative browsers; implement monitoring for exploitation attempts targeting the JavaScript garbage collector component. …
