Synopsis
The remote AlmaLinux host is missing one or more security updates.Description
The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2022:5774 advisory.- Mozilla developers and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Thunderbird 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. (CVE-2022-2505)

(CVE-2022-36318)
