An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2013-1690 in the wild since at least 28 Mar 2022.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-1690/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-1690/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-1690","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-1690/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-1690","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m5w3-m6g8-4mhf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mozilla Firefox","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause application crashes or execute arbitrary code via crafted websites due to improper handling of onreadystatechange events.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mozilla","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"firefox","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"thunderbird","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"thunderbird_esr","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_aus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_workstation","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"gluster_storage_server_for_on-premise","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"linux_enterprise_desktop","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"linux_enterprise_server","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"linux_enterprise_software_development_kit","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Mozilla Firefox before 22.0, Firefox ESR 17.x before 17.0.7, Thunderbird before 17.0.7, and Thunderbird ESR 17.x before 17.0.7 do not properly handle onreadystatechange events in conjunction with page reloading, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted web site that triggers an attempt to execute data at an unmapped memory location.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2013-06-25","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":15,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2014-08-19T03:16:49Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/vlad902/annotated-fbi-tbb-exploit","stars":15,"title":"Annotated FBI exploit for the Tor Browser Bundle from mid-2013 (CVE-2013-1690)"},{"date":"2013-06-25","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/windows/browser/mozilla_firefox_onreadystatechange","stars":null,"title":"Firefox onreadystatechange Event DocumentViewerImpl Use After Free"},{"date":"2013-08-08","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"27429","stars":null,"title":"Mozilla Firefox -
