Synopsis

The remote CentOS Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:5773 advisory.

 - Mozilla developers and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 102. 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 < 102.1, Firefox < 103, and Thunderbird < 102.1. (CVE-2022-2505)

 - When visiting directory listings for `chrome://` URLs as source text, some parameters were reflected. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.1, Firefox ESR < 91.12, Firefox < 103, Thunderbird < 102.1, and Thunderbird < 91.12. (CVE-2022-36318)

 - When combining CSS properties for overflow and transform, the mouse cursor could interact with different coordinates than displayed. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.1, Firefox ESR < 91.12, Firefox < 103, Thunderbird < 102.1, and Thunderbird < 91.12. (CVE-2022-36319)

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

Solution
