Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2019-11707

Mozilla pushed an emergency Firefox release for this type confusion in Array.pop after it was used in zero-day attacks, most publicly against employees of the Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange. Manipulating JavaScript objects triggers an exploitable crash leading to code execution, and it affects Thunderbird as well as Firefox. High Severity at CVSS 8.8 with a 38% EPSS, it was half of a two-bug chain completed by a sandbox escape.

Do this: Verify Firefox and Thunderbird are updating automatically everywhere and hunt for installs older than Firefox 67.0.3.
