Fedora 38 : seamonkey (2023-2212bff784)

high Nessus Plugin ID 174352

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Fedora 38 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2023-2212bff784 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).


Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

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.
