CVE-2014-1549: The mozilla::dom::AudioBufferSourceNodeEngine::CopyFromInputBuffer function in Mozilla Firefox before 31.0...

The mozilla::dom::AudioBufferSourceNodeEngine::CopyFromInputBuffer function in Mozilla Firefox before 31.0 and Thunderbird before 31.0 does not properly allocate Web Audio buffer memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) via crafted audio content that is improperly handled during playback buffering.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Mozilla memory corruption issue that could let a malicious audio file crash Firefox or Thunderbird, and possibly run attacker-controlled code. Business urgency is mainly for legacy systems still running versions before 31.0, especially where users open untrusted web or email content. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Firefox or Thunderbird installations earlier than 31.0, including downstream packaged versions referenced by Gentoo and Oracle advisories. Modern supported deployments are unlikely to be exposed unless old binaries remain in use. Prioritize remediation if the organization has legacy browsers, legacy Thunderbird, kiosks, VDI images, or old Linux builds. For fully supported fleets, treat this as a legacy hygiene and asset-discovery issue rather than an emergency. Mitigation focus: Remove or upgrade Firefox and Thunderbird versions earlier than 31.0.; Apply Mozilla MFSA2014-57 or downstream distributor updates where legacy packages remain.; For Gentoo systems, follow GLSA-201504-01 package guidance..
