Use-after-free vulnerability in the TypeObject class in the JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering extensive memory consumption while garbage collection is occurring, as demonstrated by improper handling of BumpChunk objects.

CVE-2014-1493 [CRITICAL] Thunderbird vulnerabilities
Title: Thunderbird vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in Thunderbird.
Benoit Jacob, Olli Pettay, Jan Varga, Jan de Mooij, Jesse Ruderman, Dan
Gohman and Christoph Diehl discovered multiple memory safety issues in
Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted
message with scripting enabled, an attacker could potentially exploit
these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird.

CVE-2014-1512 Mozilla: Use-after-free in TypeObject (MFSA 2014-30)
Security research firm VUPEN, via TippingPoint's Pwn2Own contest, reported that memory pressure during Garbage Collection could lead to memory corruption of TypeObjects in the JS engine, resulting in an exploitable use-after-free condition.
In general this flaw cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and Seamonkey products because scripting is disabled, but is potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts.

## Abstract
Tools that alert developers about library vulnerabilities depend on accurate, up-to-date vulnerability databases which are maintained by security researchers.
These databases record the libraries related to each vulnerability. However, the vulnerability reports may not explicitly list every library and human analysis is
