CVE-2023-4574: Mozilla Firefox

Medium severity, CVSS 6.5. EPSS: 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

When creating a callback over IPC for showing the Color Picker window, multiple of the same callbacks could have been created at a time and eventually all simultaneously destroyed as soon as one of the callbacks finished. This could have led to a use-after-free causing a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 117, Firefox ESR < 102.15, Firefox ESR < 115.2, Thunderbird < 102.15, and Thunderbird < 115.2.

• Mozilla Firefox: before 117.0 (fixed in 117.0); from 115.0, before 115.2 (fixed in 115.2)
• Mozilla Firefox ESR: before 102.15 (fixed in 102.15)
