The version of Firefox ESR installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 68.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2020-17 advisory. Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
