The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  • Mozilla: Type confusion for special arguments in IonMonkey (CVE-2020-15656)

  • Mozilla: Malicious Extension could obtain auth codes from OAuth login flows (CVE-2020-6823)

  • By using the reflected URL in some special resource URIs, such as chrome:, it is possible to inject stylesheets and bypass Content Security Policy (CSP). This vulnerability affects Firefox < 63.
    (CVE-2018-12398)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager’s report that the package is installed.
