CVE-2008-5013

Publication date 13 November 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18 and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 do not properly check when the Flash module has been dynamically unloaded properly, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SWF file that “dynamically unloads itself from an outside JavaScript function,” which triggers an access of an expired memory address.

Status

No maintained releases are affected by this CVE.
