FreeType before 2.4.9, as used in Mozilla Firefox Mobile before 10.0.4 and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid heap read operation and memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted property data in a PCF font.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old FreeType font-parsing flaw. A specially crafted PCF font could crash software that processes it, corrupt memory, or possibly allow code execution. Business urgency depends on whether legacy systems still run FreeType before 2.4.9 or products embedding it, such as Firefox Mobile before 10.0.4. Exposure is most likely in legacy systems, applications, browsers, or appliances that still render untrusted PCF fonts using FreeType before 2.4.9. The bundle explicitly names Mozilla Firefox Mobile before 10.0.4 and says other products used the vulnerable library, but it does not enumerate them. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item with high impact if vulnerable components remain reachable. It is not KEV-listed in the provided bundle, but memory corruption in font parsing can be serious when untrusted content is processed. Mitigation focus: Inventory software and operating systems that include FreeType or embedded font rendering libraries.; Upgrade FreeType to 2.4.9 or later where vendor guidance supports that path.; Update affected vendor products, including legacy Firefox Mobile deployments, using vendor advisories..
