CVE-2018-5125

Memory safety bugs were reported in Firefox 58 and Firefox ESR 52.6. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.7, Firefox ESR < 52.7, and Firefox < 59.

Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox ESR 52.7 (CVE-2018-5125).

Buffer overflow manipulating SVG animatedPathSegList (CVE-2018-5127).

Out-of-bounds write with malformed IPC messages (CVE-2018-5129).

Mismatched RTP payload type can trigger memory corruption (CVE-2018-5130).

Fetch API improperly returns cached copies of no-store/no-cache resources (CVE-2018-5131).

Integer overflow during Unicode conversion (CVE-2018-5144).

Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox ESR 52.7 (CVE-2018-5145).

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur in the compositor during certain graphics operations when a raw pointer is used instead of a reference counted one. This results in a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2018-5148).

• A buffer overflow can occur when manipulating the SVG animatedPathSegList through script. This results in a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2018-5127).
• A lack of parameter validation on IPC messages results in a potential out-of-bounds write through malformed IPC messages. This can potentially allow for sandbox escape through memory corruption in the parent process (CVE-2018-5129).
• An integer overflow can occur during conversion of text to some Unicode character sets due to an unchecked length parameter (CVE-2018-5144).
• An out of bounds memory write while processing Vorbis audio data was reported through the Pwn2Own contest (CVE-2018-5146).
• Mozilla developers and community members reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 58, Firefox ESR 52.6, and Thunderbird 52.6. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code (CVE-2018-5125).

Updated iceape packages include security fixes from upstream Seamonkey and Firefox:

Multiple flaws were found in the way Iceape 2.49.1 processes various types of web content, where loading a web page containing malicious content could cause Iceape to crash, execute arbitrary code, or disclose sensitive information (CVE-2018-5089, CVE-2018-5091, CVE-2018-5095, CVE-2018-5096, CVE-2018-5097, CVE-2018-5098, CVE-2018-5099, CVE-2018-5102, CVE-2018-5103, CVE-2018-5104, CVE-2018-5117, CVE-2018-5125, CVE-2018-5127, CVE-2018-5129, CVE-2018-5130, CVE-2018-5131, CVE-2018-5144, CVE-2018-5145, CVE-2018-5148, CVE-2018-5150, CVE-2018-5154, CVE-2018-5155, CVE-2018-5157, CVE-2018-5158, CVE-2018-5159, CVE-2018-5168, CVE-2018-5178, CVE-2018-5183, CVE-2018-6126)

This update for Mozilla Thunderbird to version 52.7 fixes multiple issues.

The following bugs were fixed:

• Searching message bodies of messages in local folders, including filter and quick filter operations, did not find content in message attachments
• Better error handling for Yahoo accounts

The following security fixes are included as part of the mozilla platform. In general, these flaws cannot be exploited through email in Thunderbird because scripting is disabled when reading mail, but are potentially risks in browser or browser-like contexts (MFSA 2018-09, bsc#1085130, bsc#1085671):

• CVE-2018-5127: Buffer overflow manipulating SVG animatedPathSegList
• CVE-2018-5129: Out-of-bounds write with malformed IPC messages
• CVE-2018-5144: Integer overflow during Unicode conversion
• CVE-2018-5146: Out of bounds memory write in libvorbis
• CVE-2018-5125: Memory safety bugs fixed in Thunderbird 52.7
• CVE-2018-5145: Memory safety bugs fixed in Thunderbird 52.7

Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-5125, CVE-2018-5127, CVE-2018-5129, CVE-2018-5144, CVE-2018-5145, CVE-2018-5146)

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash or opening new tabs, escape the sandbox, bypass same-origin restrictions, obtain sensitive information, confuse the user with misleading permission requests, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-5125, CVE-2018-5126, CVE-2018-5127, CVE-2018-5128, CVE-2018-5129, CVE-2018-5130, CVE-2018-5136, CVE-2018-5137, CVE-2018-5140, CVE-2018-5141, CVE-2018-5142)

It was discovered that the fetch() API could incorrectly return cached copies of no-store/no-cache resources in some circumstances. A local attacker could potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information in environments where multiple users share a common profile. (CVE-2018-5131)

Multiple security issues were discovered with WebExtensions. If a user were tricked in to installing a specially crafted extension, an attacker could potentially exploit these to obtain sensitive information or bypass security restrictions. (CVE-2018-5132, CVE-2018-5134, CVE-2018-5135)

It was discovered that the value of app.support.baseURL is not sanitized properly. If a malicious local application were to set this to a specially crafted value, an attacker could potentially exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-5133)

It was discovered that javascript: URLs with embedded tab characters could be pasted in to the addressbar. If a user were tricked in to copying a specially crafted URL in to the addressbar, an attacker could exploit this to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. (CVE-2018-5143)

Multiple memory safety issues were fixed in Spidermonkey. An attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
