Last modified
CVE-2014-1498 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The crypto.generateCRMFRequest method in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.25 does not properly validate a certain key type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors that trigger generation of a key that supports the Elliptic Curve ec-dual-use algorithm.. EPSS estimates a 1.78% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
