Mozilla has released updates for its Firefox web browser to patch two critical use-after-free vulnerabilities that have been exploited in attacks.
Both flaws have been addressed with the release of Firefox 74.0.1 and Firefox ESR 68.6.1.
Mozilla has credited researchers Francisco Alonso and Javier Marcos for reporting the vulnerabilities.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has advised users to update Firefox as soon as possible.
This is not the first round of zero-days fixed by Mozilla this year in Firefox.
