Description |
Multiple Mozilla products contain a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when an error occurs in the mImageBufferSize() method during the encoding of an image as image/vnd.microsoft.icon. This will cause an image to be initialized with a different value than that of the source image, which may allow an attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information when converting an image from ICO format to PNG. |
