## Description

Mozilla developers and community members reported memory safety bugs
present in Firefox 68 and Firefox ESR 68. Some of these bugs showed
evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that
some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability
affects Firefox < 69 and Firefox ESR < 68.1.
