CVE-2016-1951

Multiple integer overflows in io/prprf.c in Mozilla Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) before 4.12 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long string to a PR_*printf function.

It was discovered that NSPR incorrectly handled memory allocation. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1951)

Christian Holler, Gary Kwong, Jesse Ruderman, Tyson Smith, Timothy Nikkel, Sylvestre Ledru, Julian Seward, Olli Pettay, and Karl Tomlinson, discovered multiple memory safety issues in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code.
