The remote CentOS Linux 6 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:0123 advisory.

  - When pasting a <style> tag from the clipboard into a rich text editor, the CSS sanitizer incorrectly     rewrites a @namespace rule. This could allow for injection into certain types of websites resulting in     data exfiltration. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.4 and Firefox < 72. (CVE-2019-17016)

  - Due to a missing case handling object types, a type confusion vulnerability could occur, resulting in a     crash. We presume that with enough effort that it could be exploited to run arbitrary code. This     vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.4 and Firefox < 72. (CVE-2019-17017)

  - When pasting a <style> tag from the clipboard into a rich text editor, the CSS sanitizer does not     escape < and > characters. Because the resulting string is pasted directly into the text node of the     element this does not result in a direct injection into the webpage; however, if a webpage subsequently     copies the node's innerHTML, assigning it to another innerHTML, this would result in an XSS vulnerability.
    Two WYSIWYG editors were identified with this behavior, more may exist. This vulnerability affects Firefox     ESR < 68.4 and Firefox < 72. (CVE-2019-17022)

  - Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 71 and Firefox ESR 68.3. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.4 and Firefox < 72.
    (CVE-2019-17024)

  - Incorrect alias information in IonMonkey JIT compiler for setting array elements could lead to a type     confusion. We are aware of targeted attacks in the wild abusing this flaw. This vulnerability affects     Firefox ESR < 68.4.1, Thunderbird < 68.4.1, and Firefox < 72.0.1. (CVE-2019-17026)

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