The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:0969 advisory.

Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance, and     portability.

This update upgrades Firefox to version 115.8.0 ESR.

Security Fix(es):

* Mozilla: Out-of-bounds memory read in networking channels (CVE-2024-1546)

* Mozilla: Alert dialog could have been spoofed on another site (CVE-2024-1547)

* Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 123, Firefox ESR 115.8, and Thunderbird 115.8     (CVE-2024-1553)

* Mozilla: Fullscreen Notification could have been hidden by select element (CVE-2024-1548)

* Mozilla: Custom cursor could obscure the permission dialog (CVE-2024-1549)

* Mozilla: Mouse cursor re-positioned unexpectedly could have led to unintended permission grants     (CVE-2024-1550)

* Mozilla: Multipart HTTP Responses would accept the Set-Cookie header in response parts (CVE-2024-1551)

* Mozilla: Incorrect code generation on 32-bit ARM devices (CVE-2024-1552)

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.
