The remote SUSE Linux SLES11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2019:14260-1 advisory.

  - When encrypting with a block cipher, if a call to NSC_EncryptUpdate was made with data smaller than the     block size, a small out of bounds write could occur. This could have caused heap corruption and a     potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and     Firefox < 71. (CVE-2019-11745)

  - Inappropriate implementation in WebRTC in Google Chrome prior to 79.0.3945.79 allowed a remote attacker to     potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2019-13722)

  - The plain text serializer used a fixed-size array for the number of  elements it could process;
    however it was possible to overflow the static-sized array leading to memory corruption and a potentially     exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and Firefox < 71.
    (CVE-2019-17005)

  - When using nested workers, a use-after-free could occur during worker destruction. This resulted in a     potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and     Firefox < 71. (CVE-2019-17008)

  - When running, the updater service wrote status and log files to an unrestricted location; potentially     allowing an unprivileged process to locate and exploit a vulnerability in file handling in the updater     service. *Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems     are not affected.*. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and Firefox < 71.
    (CVE-2019-17009)

  - Under certain conditions, when checking the Resist Fingerprinting preference during device orientation     checks, a race condition could have caused a use-after-free and a potentially exploitable crash. This     vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and Firefox < 71. (CVE-2019-17010)

  - Under certain conditions, when retrieving a document from a DocShell in the antitracking code, a race     condition could cause a use-after-free condition and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability     affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and Firefox < 71. (CVE-2019-17011)

  - Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 70 and Firefox ESR 68.2. 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 Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3,     and Firefox < 71. (CVE-2019-17012)

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