CVE-2014-1551 is a critical use-after-free vulnerability in the FontTableRec destructor affecting Mozilla Firefox, Firefox ESR, and Thunderbird on Windows. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by exploiting crafted MathML content that improperly handles DirectWrite font-face objects. With a CVSS score of 10.0, it presents a severe risk due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been identified, its high FAUCET Risk Score of 86/100 indicates a substantial potential threat.
