Assigner: Mozilla Corporation

Description
Memory safety bugs present in Firefox ESR 115.35.1, Firefox ESR 140.10.1 and Firefox 150.0.1. 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 was fixed in Firefox 150.0.2, Firefox ESR 140.10.2, and Firefox ESR 115.35.2.

Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

CVE-2026-8092 is a security vulnerability in certain versions of Firefox (ESR 115.35.1, ESR 140.10.1, and 150.0.1) involving memory safety bugs.

These bugs can cause memory corruption, which means the program might behave unpredictably or incorrectly due to improper handling of memory.

Mozilla presumes that with enough effort, attackers could exploit these bugs to run arbitrary code on the affected systems.

The vulnerability was fixed in later versions: Firefox ESR 115.35.2, ESR 140.10.2, and Firefox 150.0.2.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on your system if you are using an affected version of Firefox.

Exploiting memory corruption bugs can lead to unauthorized control over the affected device, potentially compromising your data and system integrity.

Using a fixed version of Firefox (115.35.2, 140.10.2, or 150.0.2 and later) mitigates this risk.


What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?

To mitigate this vulnerability, you should update Firefox to a fixed version.

  • Upgrade Firefox ESR to version 115.35.2 or later.
  • Upgrade Firefox ESR to version 140.10.2 or later.
  • Upgrade Firefox to version 150.0.2 or later.
