What this means for your business

  • It affects Mozilla Firefox. It matters if your company, or a supplier that handles your data, runs it.
  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
  • FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.4% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 30% of all known flaws.

What to do

  1. 1Check whether your company or your suppliers run Mozilla Firefox, and which version. The affected versions are listed further down this page.
