CVE-2014-1525: Mozilla: Use-after-free in the Text Track Manager for HTML video (MFSA 2014-39)

Severity: Critical

CVSS Score: 9.3

The mozilla::dom::TextTrack::AddCue function in Mozilla Firefox before 29.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.26 does not properly perform garbage collection for Text Track Manager variables, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and heap memory corruption) via a crafted VIDEO element in an HTML document.
