Mozilla : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, (Denial of service)

Netscape Communicator 4.73 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary commands via a JPEG image containing a comment with an illegal field length of 1.

Bugzilla before 2.14 does not restrict access to sanitycheck.cgi, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of requests to sanitycheck.cgi.

Mozilla 0.9.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and memory leak) via a web page with a large number of images.

Buffer overflow in Netscape 6 and Mozilla 1.0 RC1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long channel name in an IRC URI.

Bugzilla 2.14 before 2.14.2, and 2.16 before 2.16rc2, may allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute certain queries via a SQL injection attack on the sort order parameter to buglist.cgi.

The POP3 mail client in Mozilla 1.0 and earlier, and Netscape Communicator 4.7 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (no new mail) via a mail message containing a dot (.) at a newline, which is interpreted as the end of the message.

The IMAP Client for Mozilla 1.3 and 1.4a allows remote malicious IMAP servers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via certain large (1) literal and possibly (2) mailbox size values that cause either integer signedness errors or integer overflow errors.

The IMAP Client for Sylpheed 0.8.11 allows remote malicious IMAP servers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain large literal size values that cause either integer signedness errors or integer overflow errors.

Unknown versions of Mozilla allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (high CPU/RAM consumption) using Javascript with an infinite loop that continues to add input to a form, possibly as the result of inserting control characters, as demonstrated using an embedded ctrl-U.

Mozilla 1.5 through 1.7 allows a CA certificate to be imported even when their DN is the same as that of the built-in CA root certificate, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service to SSL pages because the malicious certificate is treated as invalid.

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Mozilla Firefox before the Preview Release, Mozilla before 1.7.3, and Thunderbird before 0.8 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via (1) the "Send page" functionality, (2) certain responses from a malicious POP3 server, or (3) a link containing a non-ASCII hostname.

Firefox and Mozilla allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from memory consumption), as demonstrated using Javascript code that continuously creates nested arrays and then sorts the newly created arrays.

Heap-based buffer overflow in MSG_UnEscapeSearchUrl in nsNNTPProtocol.cpp for Mozilla 1.7.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via an NNTP URL (news:) with a trailing '\' (backslash) character, which prevents a string from being NULL terminated.

Mozilla allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from null dereference or infinite loop) via a web page that contains a (1) TEXTAREA, (2) INPUT, (3) FRAMESET or (4) IMG tag followed by a null character and some trailing characters, as demonstrated by mangleme.

Mozilla allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from invalid memory access) via an "unusual combination of visual elements," including several large MARQUEE tags with large height parameters, as demonstrated by mangleme.

Mozilla 1.6 and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a XBM (X BitMap) file with a large (1) height or (2) width value.

String handling functions in Mozilla 1.7.3, Firefox 1.0, and Thunderbird before 1.0.2, such as the nsTSubstring_CharT::Replace function, do not properly check the return values of other functions that resize the string, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code by forcing an out-of-memory state that causes a reallocation to fail and return a pointer to a fixed address, which leads to heap corruption.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the UTF8ToNewUnicode function for Firefox before 1.0.1 and Mozilla before 1.7.6 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via invalid sequences in a UTF8 encoded string that result in a zero length value.

The native implementations of InstallTrigger and other functions in Firefox before 1.0.3 and Mozilla Suite before 1.7.7 do not properly verify the types of objects being accessed, which causes the Javascript interpreter to continue execution at the wrong memory address, which may allow attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by passing objects of the wrong type.

Mozilla 1.7.8, Firefox 1.0.4, Camino 0.8.4, Netscape 8.0.2, and K-Meleon 0.9, and possibly other products that use the Gecko engine, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via JavaScript that repeatedly calls an empty function.

Firefox before 1.0.5, Mozilla before 1.7.9, and Netscape 8.0.2 and 7.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (access violation and crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code, by calling InstallVersion.compareTo with an object instead of a string.

Firefox before 1.0.7 and Mozilla Suite before 1.7.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via Unicode sequences with "zero-width non-joiner" characters.

Buffer overflow in the International Domain Name (IDN) support in Mozilla Firefox 1.0.6 and earlier, and Netscape 8.0.3.3 and 7.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a hostname with all "soft" hyphens (character 0xAD), which is not properly handled by the NormalizeIDN call in nsStandardURL::BuildNormalizedSpec.

Firefox 1.0.6 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a Proxy Auto-Config (PAC) script that uses an eval statement. NOTE: it is not clear whether an untrusted party has any role in triggering this issue, so it might not be a vulnerability.

Mozilla allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a Javascript BODY onload event that calls the window function.
