CVE-2006-6504
Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.1, 1.5.x before 1.5.0.9, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by appending an SVG comment DOM node to another type of document, which triggers memory corruption.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.67%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
