  - If a garbage collection was triggered at the right time, a use-after-free could have occurred during     object transplant. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 127, Firefox ESR < 115.12, and Thunderbird <     115.12. (CVE-2024-5688)

  - By monitoring the time certain operations take, an attacker could have guessed which external protocol     handlers were functional on a user's system. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 127, Firefox ESR <     115.12, and Thunderbird < 115.12. (CVE-2024-5690)

  - By tricking the browser with a `X-Frame-Options` header, a sandboxed iframe could have presented a button     that, if clicked by a user, would bypass restrictions to open a new window. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 127, Firefox ESR < 115.12, and Thunderbird < 115.12. (CVE-2024-5691)

  - Offscreen Canvas did not properly track cross-origin tainting, which could be used to access image data     from another site in violation of same-origin policy. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 127, Firefox     ESR < 115.12, and Thunderbird < 115.12. (CVE-2024-5693)

  - By manipulating the text in an `<input>` tag, an attacker could have caused corrupt memory leading     to a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 127, Firefox ESR < 115.12, and     Thunderbird < 115.12. (CVE-2024-5696)

  - Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 126, Firefox ESR 115.11, and Thunderbird 115.11. 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 affects Firefox < 127, Firefox ESR < 115.12, and     Thunderbird < 115.12. (CVE-2024-5700)

  - Memory corruption in the networking stack could have led to a potentially exploitable crash. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 125, Firefox ESR < 115.12, and Thunderbird < 115.12. (CVE-2024-5702)
