The remote Scientific Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SLSA-2021:0290-1 advisory.

  • Mozilla: Cross-origin information leakage via redirected PDF requests (CVE-2021-23953)

  • Mozilla: Type confusion when using logical assignment operators in JavaScript switch statements (CVE-2021-23954)

  • Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 85 and Firefox ESR 78.7 (CVE-2021-23964)

  • Mozilla: HTTPS pages could have been intercepted by a registered service worker when they should not have been (CVE-2020-26976)

  • Mozilla: Use-after-poison for incorrectly redeclared JavaScript variables during GC (CVE-2021-23960)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
