MITRE ATT&CK

2 techniques across 2 tactics: Collection, Discovery

The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

The user must navigate to an attacker-controlled or compromised webpage using an unpatched Firefox version (any release prior to 154, or any ESR prior to the respective fixed versions). No authentication, account, or special browser configuration is required - the vulnerability is present in default Firefox installations. Exploitation is limited by mandatory user interaction (UI:R): the victim must actively load the malicious page; drive-by exploitation without any navigation is not possible. The scope is unchanged (S:U), meaning the attacker gains information accessible within the browser's process but cannot directly affect the underlying OS or other applications. Impact is confidentiality-only - no write or availability primitive is exposed.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) reflects a genuine but constrained threat: network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation with no privileges required, but mandatory user interaction limits mass exploitation. The High confidentiality impact is the most significant signal - sensitive data exposure from the Graphics subsystem could include rendered page content, cross-origin pixel data, or internal memory artifacts. EPSS places this at just 0.16% (6th percentile), consistent with the absence of public exploit code and KEV listing; this is not a vulnerability under active widespread attack. No KEV entry and no known POC confirm the current risk is theoretical rather than operational. The combination of UI:R and absence of exploit code means opportunistic mass exploitation is unlikely, but targeted campaigns against high-value browser users remain a plausible threat model. Patch availability across all affected branches removes the primary remediation barrier - the fix is straightforward and risk drops to near-zero post-upgrade.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker hosts a malicious webpage containing crafted content that triggers the vulnerable Graphics component code path when rendered by Firefox. A user browsing to the page - via phishing link, malicious ad, or compromised site - causes the browser to inadvertently expose sensitive data (potentially cross-origin rendered content or memory artifacts) that the attacker's page script can then exfiltrate. No public proof-of-concept exists at time of analysis, so replicating this attack requires independent vulnerability research.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 21, 2026

Information disclosure in Firefox's Graphics component exposes sensitive data to remote attackers who can lure users to a malicious webpage. All Firefox release channels prior to version 154 and multiple ESR branches are affected, with fixes shipping in Firefox 154, ESR 115.39, ESR 140.14, and ESR 153.1. No public exploit code has been identified and exploitation probability is very low (EPSS 0.16%), though the high confidentiality impact and zero-privilege-required attack path make patching a straightforward priority.

RemediationAI

The primary fix is to upgrade to Firefox 154 or later for standard release users. ESR users should update to Firefox ESR 115.39, ESR 140.14, or ESR 153.1 depending on their deployed branch. All patched versions are available via Mozilla's standard update mechanism and are documented across Mozilla Security Advisories mfsa2026-74 through mfsa2026-80 (https://www.mozilla.org/security/advisories/). For environments unable to patch immediately, restricting access to untrusted or external web content via network policy or proxy allowlisting reduces exposure; however, this is operationally disruptive for general-purpose browser deployments. Disabling JavaScript is a highly effective compensating control that prevents triggering Graphics component APIs via script, but renders the browser unusable for most modern web applications. Given patch availability across all affected branches, upgrade is strongly preferred over workarounds.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability resides in Firefox's Graphics component (CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor), which handles rendering operations including canvas, WebGL, and related browser graphics APIs. These subsystems are historically susceptible to cross-origin or cross-context memory leaks when rendered output or internal state is accessible to attacker-controlled script. The affected product is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* - the wildcard version indicates all Firefox versions prior to the fix across all platforms. The ESR track breadth (115.39, 140.14, 153.1) confirms the defect spans multiple long-term support lineages, suggesting the root cause was present for an extended period.
