JIT miscompilation in the JavaScript Engine: JIT component

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: 0.40% (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) 140.13.0-1.el10_2; thunderbird (AlmaLinux:10) 140.13.0-1.el10_2.alma.1; firefox (AlmaLinux:8) 140.13.0-1.el8_10.alma.1.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to firefox (AlmaLinux:10) 140.13.0-1.el10_2; thunderbird (AlmaLinux:10) 140.13.0-1.el10_2.alma.1; firefox (AlmaLinux:8) 140.13.0-1.el8_10.alma.1 or later.
