CVE-2025-11710: Cross-process information leaked due to malicious IPC messages
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 39/100)
- 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: 0.42% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: firefox (AlmaLinux:10) 140.4.0-3.el10_0; thunderbird (AlmaLinux:10) 140.4.0-2.el10_0.alma.1; firefox (AlmaLinux:8) 140.4.0-3.el8_10.alma.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to firefox (AlmaLinux:10) 140.4.0-3.el10_0; thunderbird (AlmaLinux:10) 140.4.0-2.el10_0.alma.1; firefox (AlmaLinux:8) 140.4.0-3.el8_10.alma.1 or later.
