CVE-2020-12392

The 'Copy as cURL' feature of Devtools' network tab did not properly escape the HTTP POST data of a request, which can be controlled by the website. If a user used the 'Copy as cURL' feature and pasted the command into a terminal, it could have resulted in the disclosure of local files. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.8, Firefox < 76, and Thunderbird < 68.8.0.

This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.8, Firefox < 76, and Thunderbird < 68.8.0.

Updated firefox packages fix security vulnerabilities:

A buffer overflow could occur when parsing and validating SCTP chunks in WebRTC. This could have led to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2020-6831).

A race condition when running shutdown code for Web Worker led to a use-after-free vulnerability. This resulted in a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2020-12387).

If a user used the 'Copy as cURL' feature and pasted the command into a terminal, it could have resulted in the disclosure of local files (CVE-2020-12392).

Mozilla developers and community members Alexandru Michis, Jason Kratzer, philipp, Ted Campbell, Bas Schouten, André Bargull, and Karl Tomlinson reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox ESR 68.7. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code (CVE-2020-12395).

nss has been updated to 3.52. rootcerts have been updated to drop some obsolete certs fixing support for nss 3.52.

• Since firefox-gcc8 now has disabled autoreqprov for firefox-libstdc++6 and firefox-libgcc_s1, those packages don't provide some capabilities, we have to disable AutoReqProv in MozillaFirefox too so they're not added as automatic requirements. (bsc#1162828)
