Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 36 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2023-a6f685801e advisory.

- Update to 2.53.16 Langpacks are now provided in the modern form of web extensions. This may take a bit longer at startup if all languages are enabled at the same time. To avoid this, just disable unneeded languages by Add-ons Manager. (Note, langpacks are related to the language of the application menus etc., and are not related to the Web content at all). (FEDORA-2023-a6f685801e)

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

Solution

Update the affected seamonkey package.
