CVE-2026-109774 Details
Description
Invalid pointer, undefined behavior in the DOM: Notifications component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 158 and Thunderbird 158.
A use-after-free vulnerability has been identified in the DOM Notifications component of Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird. This issue arises when a non-persistent notification, created with an icon, is not displayed immediately. Instead, the notification fetches and decodes the icon asynchronously. If the page is navigated away from before this process is complete, the notification's actor can be closed, leading to a null dereference crash when the notification attempts to be displayed. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox and Thunderbird version 158.
Users can update to Mozilla Firefox or Thunderbird version 158, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
