CVE-2011-0069: Unspecified vulnerability in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.19, 3.6.x before 3.6.17, and 4.x before 4.0.1…
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Plan (action score 42/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 7.1% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 94.3% of all records.
- No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: iceape (Debian:6.0) 2.0.11-5; icedove (Debian:6.0) 3.0.11-1+squeeze2; iceweasel (Debian:6.0) 3.5.16-7.
Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to iceape (Debian:6.0) 2.0.11-5; icedove (Debian:6.0) 3.0.11-1+squeeze2; iceweasel (Debian:6.0) 3.5.16-7 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Unspecified vulnerability in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.19, 3.6.x before 3.6.17, and 4.x before 4.0.1; Thunderbird before 3.1.10; and SeaMonkey before 2.0.14 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-0070.
