## Description

When reading from areas partially or fully outside the source resource with WebGL's <code>copyTexSubImage</code> method, the specification requires the returned values be zero. Previously, this memory was uninitialized, leading to potentially sensitive data disclosure. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.7.0, Firefox ESR < 68.7, and Firefox < 75.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Mozilla Thunderbird, Mozilla Firefox ESR, Mozilla Firefox, upgrade to a fixed version (68.7.0, 68.7, 75) per the references below.
