Out of Bound Read Leading to Memory Disclosure in Firefox
The vulnerability is caused by a negative kernel unit length which leads to an out of bound access in ConvolvePixel() and out-of-bounds data is going to be copied into the SVG image. From there, it can be extracted by an attacker by loading the SVG image into a canvas element.
Mitigation:
Update to the latest version of Firefox to patch the vulnerability.
