The version of Firefox installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 115.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the mfsa2023-26 advisory.

  • During the worker lifecycle, a use-after-free condition could have occured, which could have led to a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2023-3600)

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