CVE-2017-7751: Use-after-free with content viewer listeners (high)
A use-after-free vulnerability with content viewer listeners that results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2017-7752: Use-after-free with IME input (moderate)
A use-after-free vulnerability during specific user interactions with the input method editor (IME) in some languages due to how events are handled. This results in a potentially exploitable crash but would require specific user interaction to trigger.

CVE-2017-7754: Out-of-bounds read in WebGL with ImageInfo object (high)
An out-of-bounds read in WebGL with a maliciously crafted <code>ImageInfo</code> object during WebGL operations.

CVE-2017-7755: Privilege escalation through Firefox Installer with same directory DLL files (high)
The Firefox installer on Windows can be made to load malicious DLL files stored in the same directory as the installer when it is run. This allows privileged execution if the installer is run with elevated privileges.
Note: This attack only affects Windows operating systems. Other operating systems are unaffected.

CVE-2017-7756: Use-after-free and use-after-scope logging XHR header errors (high)
A use-after-free and use-after-scope vulnerability when logging errors from headers for XML HTTP Requests (XHR). This could result in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2017-7757: Use-after-free in IndexedDB (high)
A use-after-free vulnerability in IndexedDB when one of its objects is destroyed in memory while a method on it is still being executed. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2017-7758: Out-of-bounds read in Opus encoder (high)
An out-of-bounds read vulnerability with the Opus encoder when the number of channels in an audio stream changes while the encoder is in use.

CVE-2017-7759: Android intent URLs can cause navigation to local file system (high)
Android intent URLs given to Firefox for Android can be used to navigate from HTTP or HTTPS URLs to local <code>file:</code> URLs, allowing for the reading of local data through a violation of same-origin policy.
Note: This attack only affects Firefox for Android. Other operating systems are not affected.

CVE-2017-7760: File manipulation and privilege escalation via callback parameter in Mozilla Windows Updater and Maintenance Service (high)
The Mozilla Windows updater modifies some files to be updated by reading the original file and applying changes to it. The location of the original file can be altered by a malicious user by passing a special path to the callback parameter through the Mozilla Maintenance Service, allowing the manipulation of files in the installation directory and privilege escalation by manipulating the Mozilla Maintenance Service, which has privileged access.
Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected.

CVE-2017-7761: File deletion and privilege escalation through Mozilla Maintenance Service helper.exe application (moderate)
The Mozilla Maintenance Service <code>helper.exe</code> application creates a temporary directory writable by non-privileged users. When this is combined with creation of a junction (a form of symbolic link), protected files in the target directory of the junction can be deleted by the Mozilla Maintenance Service, which has privileged access.
Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected.

CVE-2017-7762: Addressbar spoofing in Reader mode (moderate)
When entered directly, Reader Mode did not strip the username and password section of URLs displayed in the addressbar. This can be used for spoofing the domain of the current page.

CVE-2017-7763: Mac fonts render some unicode characters as spaces (moderate)
Default fonts on OS X display some Tibetan characters as whitespace. When used in the addressbar as part of an IDN this can be used for domain name spoofing attacks.
Note: This attack only affects OS X operating systems. Other operating systems are unaffected.

CVE-2017-7764: Domain spoofing with combination of Canadian Syllabics and other unicode blocks (moderate)
Characters from the "Canadian Syllabics" unicode block can be mixed with characters from other unicode blocks in the addressbar instead of being rendered as their raw "punycode" form, allowing for domain name spoofing attacks through character confusion. The current Unicode standard allows characters from "Aspirational Use Scripts" such as Canadian Syllabics to be mixed with Latin characters in the "moderately restrictive" IDN profile. We have changed Firefox behavior to match the upcoming Unicode version 10.0 which removes this category and treats them as "Limited Use Scripts."

CVE-2017-7765: Mark of the Web bypass when saving executable files (moderate)
The "Mark of the Web" was not correctly saved on Windows when files with very long names were downloaded from the Internet. Without the Mark of the Web data, the security warning that Windows displays before running executables downloaded from the Internet is not shown.
Note: This attack only affects Windows operating systems. Other operating systems are unaffected.

CVE-2017-7766: File execution and privilege escalation through updater.ini, Mozilla Windows Updater, and Mozilla Maintenance Service (high)
An attack using manipulation of <code>updater.ini</code> contents, used by the Mozilla Windows Updater, and privilege escalation through the Mozilla Maintenance Service to allow for arbitrary file execution and deletion by the Maintenance Service, which has privileged access.
Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected.

CVE-2017-7767: Privilege escalation and arbitrary file overwrites through Mozilla Windows Updater and Mozilla Maintenance Service (moderate)
The Mozilla Maintenance Service can be invoked by an unprivileged user to overwrite arbitrary files with junk data using the Mozilla Windows Updater, which runs with the Maintenance Service's privileged access.
Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected.

CVE-2017-7768: 32 byte arbitrary file read through Mozilla Maintenance Service (moderate)
The Mozilla Maintenance Service can be invoked by an unprivileged user to read 32 bytes of any arbitrary file on the local system by convincing the service that it is reading a status file provided by the Mozilla Windows Updater. The Mozilla Maintenance Service executes with privileged access, bypassing system protections against unprivileged users.
Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected.

CVE-2017-7770: Addressbar spoofing with JavaScript events and fullscreen mode (moderate)
A mechanism where when a new tab is loaded through JavaScript events, if fullscreen mode is then entered, the addressbar will not be rendered. This would allow a malicious site to displayed a spoofed addressbar, showing the location of an arbitrary website instead of the one loaded.
Note: this issue only affects Firefox for Android. Desktop Firefox is unaffected.

CVE-2017-7778: Vulnerabilities in the Graphite 2 library (high)
A number of security vulnerabilities in the Graphite 2 library including out-of-bounds reads, buffer overflow reads and writes, and the use of uninitialized memory. These issues were addressed in Graphite 2 version 1.3.10.
