CVE-2014-1513

26
FAUCET Score

CVE-2014-1513 is a critical vulnerability affecting Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey, where a flaw in the handling of ArrayBuffer objects allows for a zero-length transition. This can lead to a heap-based out-of-bounds write or read, enabling remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a specially crafted website. With a CVSS score of 8.8 (High), it presents a significant risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While there is no evidence of active exploitation, no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and it is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, the vulnerability has garnered some community discussion, indicating awareness among security researchers.
