An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-1525 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2014-1525/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1525/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-1525","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1525/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-1525","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-22m9-g4cq-h743","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-1525"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Firefox browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via a crafted VIDEO element due to a use-after-free vulnerability in Firefox.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mozilla","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"firefox","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"seamonkey","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"},{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"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.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1525","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","fedoraproject:fedora","mozilla:firefox","mozilla:seamonkey","opensuse:opensuse"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1526"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1524"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-04-30","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SaltStack Salt Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-11651","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"OpenSMTPD Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-7247","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2020-01-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Out-of-bounds Write","id":"CVE-2019-16928","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2019-09-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2018-6789","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2018-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-2590","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2015-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle JRE Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2013-0422","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2013-01-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2011-3544","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2011-10-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via a crafted VIDEO element due to a use-after-free vulnerability in Firefox.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1525/"}
