Mozilla has released an out-of-band security update for Firefox, Firefox Focus , and Thunderbird, fixing two critical vulnerabilities (CVE-2022-26485, CVE-2022-26486) exploited by attackers in the wild. The two patched zero-days are both memory corruption bugs of the “use-after-free” kind, meaning that they may allow attackers to use memory that has been freed by the program.
