CVE-2024-10468: Potential race conditions in IndexedDB could have caused memory corruption, leading to a potentially exploitable crash.

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)

  • 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: 0.41% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
  • Fixed version: firefox-esr (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 153.0-1.1; MozillaFirefox (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 132.0.1-1.1.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to firefox-esr (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 153.0-1.1; MozillaFirefox (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 132.0.1-1.1 or later.
