The NativeKey widget in Mozilla Firefox before 24.0, Thunderbird before 24.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.21 processes key me

The NativeKey widget in Mozilla Firefox before 24.0, Thunderbird before 24.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.21 processes key messages after destruction by a dispatched event listener, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by leveraging incorrect event usage after widget-memory reallocation.
