CVE-2004-1639
Mozilla Firefox before 0.10, Mozilla 5.0, and Gecko 20040913 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash or memory consumption) via a large binary file with a .html extension.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.74%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
