This also had the     potential to leak NTLM credentials to the resource. This bug only affects Firefox for Windows. Other     operating systems are unaffected. (CVE-2023-25740)

  - Due to URL previews in the network panel of developer tools improperly storing URLs, query parameters     could potentially be used to overwrite global objects in privileged code. (CVE-2023-25731)

  - The return value from <code>gfx::SourceSurfaceSkia::Map()</code> wasn't being verified which could have     potentially lead to a null pointer dereference. (CVE-2023-25733)

  - An invalid downcast from <code>nsHTMLDocument</code> to <code>nsIContent</code> could have lead to     undefined behavior. (CVE-2023-25736)

  - When dragging and dropping an image cross-origin, the image's size could potentially be leaked. This     behavior was shipped in 109 and caused web compatibility problems as well as this security concern, so the     behavior was disabled until further review. (CVE-2023-25741)

  - When importing a SPKI RSA public key as ECDSA P-256, the key would be handled incorrectly causing the tab     to crash. (CVE-2023-25742)

  - Mozilla developers Kershaw Chang and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in     Firefox 109 and Firefox ESR 102.7. 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. (CVE-2023-25744)

  - Mozilla developers Timothy Nikkel, Gabriele Svelto, Jeff Muizelaar and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported     memory safety bugs present in Firefox 109. 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.
