Starting with Firefox 142, it was possible for a compromised child process to trigger a use-after-free in the GPU or browser process using WebGPU-related IPC calls. This may have been usable to escape the child process sandbox. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 144.0.2.
The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
