The remote Scientific Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SLSA-2022:9072-1 advisory.

  • Mozilla: Arbitrary file read from a compromised content process (CVE-2022-46872)

  • Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox ESR 102.6 and Thunderbird 102.6 (CVE-2022-46878)

  • Mozilla: Use-after-free in WebGL (CVE-2022-46880, CVE-2022-46882)

  • Mozilla: Memory corruption in WebGL (CVE-2022-46881)

  • Mozilla: Drag and Dropped Filenames could have been truncated to malicious extensions (CVE-2022-46874)

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