CVE-2006-0293

HIGH
New! CVE Severity Now Using CVSS v3

The calculated severity for CVEs has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. CVEs that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.

Description

The function allocation code (js_NewFunction in jsfun.c) in Firefox 1.5 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) and possibly execute arbitrary code via user-defined methods that trigger garbage collection in a way that operates on freed objects.
