The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202210-34 (Mozilla Firefox: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  • A same-origin policy violation could have allowed the theft of cross-origin URL entries, leaking the result of a redirect, via <code>performance.getEntries()</code>. (CVE-2022-42927)

  • Certain types of allocations were missing annotations that, if the Garbage Collector was in a specific state, could have lead to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2022-42928)

  • If a website called <code>window.print()</code> in a particular way, it could cause a denial of service of the browser, which may persist beyond browser restart depending on the user’s session restore settings.
    (CVE-2022-42929)

  • If two Workers were simultaneously initializing their CacheStorage, a data race could have occurred in the <code>ThirdPartyUtil</code> component. (CVE-2022-42930)

  • Logins saved by Firefox should be managed by the Password Manager component which uses encryption to save files on-disk. Instead, the username (not password) was saved by the Form Manager to an unencrypted file on disk. (CVE-2022-42931)

  • Mozilla developers Ashley Hale and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Thunderbird 102.3. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-42932)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
