Vulnerability Summary

modules/libpr0n/decoders/bmp/nsBMPDecoder.cpp in Mozilla Firefox prior to 2.0.0.12, Thunderbird prior to 2.0.0.12, and SeaMonkey prior to 1.1.8 does not properly perform certain calculations related to the mColors table, which allows remote malicious users to read portions of memory uninitialized via a crafted 8-bit bitmap (BMP) file that triggers an out-of-bounds read within the heap, as demonstrated using a CANVAS element; or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted 8-bit bitmap file that triggers an out-of-bounds read. NOTE: the initial public reports stated that this affected Firefox in Ubuntu 6.06 up to and including 7.10.
