CVE-2018-5160: Canonical Ubuntu Linux

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 2.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

WebRTC can use a "WrappedI420Buffer" pixel buffer but the owning image object can be freed while it is still in use. This can result in the WebRTC encoder using uninitialized memory, leading to a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 60.

Affected products

• Canonical Ubuntu Linux: version 14.04 only; version 16.04 only; version 17.10 only; version 18.04 only
• Mozilla Firefox: before 60.0 (fixed in 60.0)
