- An error when handling a recursive call to 'eval()' wrapped in a try or catch statement, which could be exploited to force a user into accepting any dialog.
- A buffer overflow error related to the JavaScript engine's internal memory mapping of non-local JS variables, which could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code.
- A user-after-free error related to a method used by 'JSON.stringify', which could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code.
- A buffer overflow error related to the JavaScript engine's internal memory mapping of string values, which could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code.
- An use-after-free error related to Web Workers, which could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code.
- A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability, allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests that were initiated by a plugin and received a 307 redirect to a page on a different web site.
