"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2014-175:02 advisory.

    Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and
    portability.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
     CVE-2014-1493
    Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR
    24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allow remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown
    vectors.
     CVE-2014-1497
    The mozilla::WaveReader::DecodeAudioData function in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before
    24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive
    information from process heap memory, cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application
    crash), or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted WAV file.
     CVE-2014-1505
    The SVG filter implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird
    before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive displacement-
    correlation information, and possibly bypass the Same Origin Policy and read text from a different domain,
    via a timing attack involving feDisplacementMap elements, a related issue to CVE-2013-1693.
     CVE-2014-1508
    The libxul.so!gfxContext::Polygon function in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4,
    Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information
    from process memory, cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash), or possibly
    bypass the Same Origin Policy via vectors involving MathML polygon rendering.
     CVE-2014-1509
    Buffer overflow in the _cairo_truetype_index_to_ucs4 function in cairo, as used in Mozilla Firefox before
    28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25, allows remote
    attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted extension that renders fonts in a PDF document.
     CVE-2014-1510
    The Web IDL implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird
    before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with
    chrome privileges by using an IDL fragment to trigger a window.open call.
     CVE-2014-1511
    Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before
    2.25 allow remote attackers to bypass the popup blocker via unspecified vectors.
     CVE-2014-1512
    Use-after-free vulnerability in the TypeObject class in the JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox before
    28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote
    attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering extensive memory consumption while garbage collection is
    occurring.
     CVE-2014-1513
    TypedArrayObject.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before
    24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 does not prevent a zero-length transition during use of an ArrayBuffer
    object, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap-based
    out-of-bounds write or read) via a crafted web site.
     CVE-2014-1514
    vmtypedarrayobject.cpp in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before
    24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 does not validate the length of the destination array before a copy
    operation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (out-of-
    bounds write and application crash) by triggering incorrect use of the TypedArrayObject class.
