Approval Request Comment
[Feature/regressing bug #]: Bug 1275360 added support for parsing red, which has a problem.

[User impact if declined]: Firefox users who use WebRTC services or connect to WebRTC devices which send broken SDP to Firefox can cause Firefox's main thread to enter an endless loop from which the user can only terminate Firefox via the OS.

[Describe test coverage new/current, TreeHerder]: The patch contains a new unit test which shows that their is no longer an endless loop.

[Risks and why]: The risk is pretty low as it only set an additional exit criteria from a loop which should only be entered in rare corner cases.

[String/UUID change made/needed]: N/A

Note: this could be used to trivially DOS the browser (though I'm sure there are other ways to do so easily).
