GCVE Workshop - 22 September 2026 (14:00-18:00), Luxembourg Before The Vulnopticon Conference - Registration

FKIE_CVE-2011-3658

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2011-12-21 04:02 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:33
Severity
Summary
The SVG implementation in Mozilla Firefox 8.0, Thunderbird 8.0, and SeaMonkey 2.5 does not properly interact with DOMAttrModified event handlers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving removal of SVG elements.
