CVE-2016-1945
The nsZipArchive function in Mozilla Firefox before 44.0 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging incorrect use of a pointer during processing of a ZIP archive.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.97%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
