memory safety
Security issues were identified and fixed in firefox 3.5.x:
liboggplay in Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.6 and SeaMonkey before
2.0.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of
service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via unspecified
vectors, related to memory safety issues. (CVE-2009-3388)
Integer overflow in libtheora in Xiph.Org Theora before 1.1, as used
in Mozilla Firefox 3.5 before 3.5.6 and SeaMonkey before 2.0.1, allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash)
or possibly execute arbitrary code via a video with large dimensions
breaking routines attempting to process the string for display. Such
cases triggered an invalid read past the end of an array causing a
crash which an attacker could potentially use to run arbitrary code
on a victim's computer (CVE-2010-3769).
Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety
bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based
products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption
under certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort
at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code
(CVE-2010-3776, CVE-2010-3777).
Security researcher regenrecht reported several dangling pointer
vulnerabilities via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative (CVE-2011-0065,
CVE-2011-0066, CVE-2011-0073).
Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety
bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based
products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under
certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least
some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code (CVE-2011-0081,
CVE-2011-0069, CVE-2011-0070, CVE-2011-0080, CVE-2011-0074,
and file extension of a file to be downloaded and opened, potentially
causing a user to run an executable file when they expected to open
a non-executable file (CVE-2009-3376).
Mozilla upgraded several third party libraries used in media rendering
to address multiple memory safety and stability bugs identified by
members of the Mozilla community. Some of the bugs discovered could
potentially be used by an attacker to crash a victim's browser and
execute arbitrary code on their computer. liboggz, libvorbis, and
liboggplay were all upgraded to address these issues (CVE-2009-3377,
CVE-2009-3379, CVE-2009-3378).
link to the home button can set that user's home page to a javascript:
URL. Once this is done the attacker's page can cause repeated crashes
of the browser, eventually getting the script URL loaded in the
privileged about:sessionrestore context (CVE-2012-0458).

existed in predictable locations in a useful format. For example,
the existence or non-existence of particular images might indicate
whether certain software was installed (CVE-2011-0071).
