Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and portability.

Security Fix(es):

Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox for Android 79. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 80, Firefox ESR < 78.2, Thunderbird < 78.2, and Firefox for Android < 80.(CVE-2020-15670)

Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 80 and Firefox ESR 78.2. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 81, Thunderbird < 78.3, and Firefox ESR < 78.3.(CVE-2020-15673)

Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 80. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 81.(CVE-2020-15674)

When processing surfaces, the lifetime may outlive a persistent buffer leading to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 81.(CVE-2020-15675)

If a valid external protocol handler was referenced in an image tag, the resulting broken image size could be distinguished from a broken image size of a non-existent protocol handler. This allowed an attacker to successfully probe whether an external protocol handler was registered. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.(CVE-2020-15680)

When multiple WASM threads had a reference to a module, and were looking up exported functions, one WASM thread could have overwritten another's entry in a shared stub table, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.(CVE-2020-15681)

When a link to an external protocol was clicked, a prompt was presented that allowed the user to choose what application to open it in. An attacker could induce that prompt to be associated with an origin they didn't control, resulting in a spoofing attack. This was fixed by changing external protocol prompts to be tab-modal while also ensuring they could not be incorrectly associated with a different origin. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.(CVE-2020-15682)

Mozilla developers and community members reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 81 and Firefox ESR 78.3. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.4, Firefox < 82, and Thunderbird < 78.4.(CVE-2020-15683)

Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 81. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.(CVE-2020-15684)

Side-channel information leakage in graphics in Google Chrome prior to 87.0.4280.66 allowed a remote attacker to leak cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page.(CVE-2020-16012)

Use after free in WebRTC in Google Chrome prior to 88.0.4324.96 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted SCTP packet.(CVE-2020-16044)

In certain circumstances, the MCallGetProperty opcode can be emitted with unmet assumptions resulting in an exploitable use-after-free condition. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.0.3, Firefox ESR < 78.4.1, and Thunderbird < 78.4.2.(CVE-2020-26950)

(CVE-2020-26951)

(CVE-2020-26953) …

An attacker who could have convinced a user to drag and drop an image to a filesystem could have manipulated the resulting filename to contain an executable extension, and by extension potentially tricked the user into executing malicious code. While very similar, this is a separate issue from CVE-2022-34483. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 102.

These are all security issues fixed in the MozillaFirefox-102.0.1-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.

  • For added viewing pleasure, full-range color levels are now supported for video playback on many systems.
  • Find it easier now! Mac users can now access the macOS share options from the Firefox File menu.
  • Voilà! Support for images containing ICC v4 profiles is enabled on macOS.
  • Firefox now supports the new AVIF image format, which is based on the modern and royalty-free AV1 video codec. It offers significant bandwidth savings for sites compared to existing image formats. It also supports transparency and other advanced features.

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, spoof the browser UI, bypass CSP restrictions, bypass sandboxed iframe restrictions, obtain sensitive information, bypass the HTML sanitizer, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-2200, CVE-2022-34468, CVE-2022-34470, CVE-2022-34473, CVE-2022-34474, CVE-2022-34475, CVE-2022-34476, CVE-2022-34477, CVE-2022-34479, CVE-2022-34480, CVE-2022-34481, CVE-2022-34484, CVE-2022-34485)

(CVE-2022-34482, CVE-2022-34483)

It was discovered that a compromised server could trick Firefox into an addon downgrade in some circumstances. An attacker could potentially exploit this to trick the browser into downgrading an addon to a prior version. (CVE-2022-34471)
