Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
An attacker could read 32 bits of values spilled onto the stack in a JIT compiled function. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 137 and Thunderbird 137.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check installed Firefox version
    Open Firefox, go to Menu > Help > About Firefox, or navigate to about:support in the address bar. The version number is displayed at the top of the page.
    Affected if The displayed version is less than 137.0 (e.g., 136.x, 135.x, etc.)
  2. Check installed Thunderbird version
    Open Thunderbird, go to Menu > Help > About Thunderbird, or navigate to about:support in the address bar. The version number is displayed at the top.
    Affected if Thunderbird is installed and the displayed version is less than 137.0 (e.g., 136.x, 135.x, etc.)
  3. Check Firefox version via command line
    Run 'firefox --version' or 'firefox -v' in a terminal/command prompt. On Windows, you can also check: 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -v'
    Affected if The reported version number is below 137.0
  4. Check Thunderbird version via command line
    Run 'thunderbird --version' or 'thunderbird -v' in a terminal/command prompt. On Windows, check: 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe -v'
    Affected if The reported version number is below 137.0 (if Thunderbird is installed)
