Description

The AppendAttributeValue function in the JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown vectors that trigger memory corruption, as demonstrated by e4x/extensions/regress-410192.js.

Affected

Our own answer: ranges merged, affected separated from platform-only, with confidence and review flags.

2.0 ≤ v < 2.0.0.18
Affected range stops below 2.0.0.18, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
1.0 ≤ v ≤ 1.1.13
2.0 ≤ v < 2.0.0.18
Affected range stops below 2.0.0.18, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
