This vulnerability     affects Firefox ESR < 60.3 and Thunderbird < 60.3.
    (CVE-2018-12389)

  - When manipulating user events in nested loops while     opening a document through script, it is possible to     trigger a potentially exploitable crash due to poor     event handling. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 63,     Firefox ESR < 60.3, and Thunderbird < 60.3.
    (CVE-2018-12392)

  - A potentially exploitable crash in TransportSecurityInfo     used for SSL can be triggered by data stored in the     local cache in the user profile directory. This issue is     only exploitable in combination with another     vulnerability allowing an attacker to write data into     the local cache or from locally installed malware. This     issue also triggers a non-exploitable startup crash for     users switching between the Nightly and Release versions     of Firefox if the same profile is used. This     vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.2.1, Firefox ESR     < 60.2.1, and Firefox < 62.0.2. (CVE-2018-12385)

  - Mozilla developers and community members reported memory     safety bugs present in Firefox 62 and Firefox ESR 60.2.
    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 Firefox < 63, Firefox ESR < 60.3,     and Thunderbird < 60.3. (CVE-2018-12390)

  - A potential vulnerability was found in 32-bit builds     where an integer overflow during the conversion of     scripts to an internal UTF-16 representation could     result in allocating a buffer too small for the     conversion. This leads to a possible out-of-bounds     write. *Note: 64-bit builds are not vulnerable to this     issue.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 63,     Firefox ESR < 60.3, and Thunderbird < 60.3.
    (CVE-2018-12393)

  - Memory safety bugs were reported in Firefox 59, Firefox     ESR 52.7, and Thunderbird 52.7. 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 < 52.8, Thunderbird ESR < 52.8, Firefox <     60, and Firefox ESR < 52.8. (CVE-2018-5150)

  - Sites can bypass security checks on permissions to     install lightweight themes by manipulating the baseURI     property of the theme element. This could allow a     malicious site to install a theme without user     interaction which could contain offensive or     embarrassing images.
