The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:0025 advisory.
Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance, and portability.
This update upgrades Firefox to version 115.6.0 ESR.
Security Fix(es):
* Mozilla: Heap-buffer-overflow affecting WebGL <code>DrawElementsInstanced</code> method with Mesa VM driver (CVE-2023-6856)
* Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 121, Firefox ESR 115.6, and Thunderbird 115.6 (CVE-2023-6864)
* Mozilla: Potential exposure of uninitialized data in <code>EncryptingOutputStream</code> (CVE-2023-6865)
* Mozilla: Symlinks may resolve to smaller than expected buffers (CVE-2023-6857)
* Mozilla: Heap buffer overflow in <code>nsTextFragment</code> (CVE-2023-6858)
* Mozilla: Use-after-free in PR_GetIdentitiesLayer (CVE-2023-6859)
* Mozilla: Potential sandbox escape due to <code>VideoBridge</code> lack of texture validation (CVE-2023-6860)
* Mozilla: Heap buffer overflow affected <code>nsWindow::PickerOpen(void)</code> in headless mode (CVE-2023-6861)
* Mozilla: Use-after-free in <code>nsDNSService</code> (CVE-2023-6862)
* Mozilla: Clickjacking permission prompts using the popup transition (CVE-2023-6867)
* Mozilla: Undefined behavior in <code>ShutdownObserver()</code> (CVE-2023-6863)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
