The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 22.10 / 23.04 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-6147-1 advisory.

  • Mozilla developers and community members Gabriele Svelto, Andrew McCreight, the Mozilla Fuzzing Team, Sean Feng, and Sebastian Hengst reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 113 and Firefox ESR 102.11. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-34416)

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