Synopsis
The remote Rocky Linux host is missing one or more security updates.
Description
The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RLSA-2022:0845 advisory.
- It may be possible for an attacker to craft an email message that causes Thunderbird to perform an out-of- bounds write of one byte when processing the message. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.6.1.
(CVE-2022-0566)
- xmltok_impl.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5 lacks certain validation of encoding, such as checks for whether a UTF-8 character is valid in a certain context. (CVE-2022-25235)
- xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5 allows attackers to insert namespace-separator characters into namespace URIs. (CVE-2022-25236)
- In Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5, there is an integer overflow in storeRawNames. (CVE-2022-25315)
- An attacker could have caused a use-after-free by forcing a text reflow in an SVG object leading to a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 98, Firefox ESR < 91.7, and Thunderbird < 91.7. (CVE-2022-26381)
- When resizing a popup after requesting fullscreen access, the popup would not display the fullscreen notification. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 98, Firefox ESR < 91.7, and Thunderbird < 91.7.
(CVE-2022-26383)
- If an attacker could control the contents of an iframe sandboxed with <code>allow-popups</code> but not <code>allow-scripts</code>, they were able to craft a link that, when clicked, would lead to JavaScript execution in violation of the sandbox. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 98, Firefox ESR < 91.7, and Thunderbird < 91.7. (CVE-2022-26384)
- Previously Firefox for macOS and Linux would download temporary files to a user-specific directory in <code>/tmp</code>, but this behavior was changed to download them to <code>/tmp</code> where they could be affected by other local users. This behavior was reverted to the original, user-specific directory.
<br>*This bug only affects Firefox for macOS and Linux. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.7 and Thunderbird < 91.7. (CVE-2022-26386)
- When installing an add-on, Firefox verified the signature before prompting the user; but while the user was confirming the prompt, the underlying add-on file could have been modified and Firefox would not have noticed. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 98, Firefox ESR < 91.7, and Thunderbird < 91.7.
(CVE-2022-26387)
- Removing an XSLT parameter during processing could have lead to an exploitable use-after-free. We have had reports of attacks in the wild abusing this flaw. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 97.0.2, Firefox ESR < 91.6.1, Firefox for Android < 97.3.0, Thunderbird < 91.6.2, and Focus < 97.3.0. (CVE-2022-26485)
- An unexpected message in the WebGPU IPC framework could lead to a use-after-free and exploitable sandbox escape. We have had reports of attacks in the wild abusing this flaw. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 97.0.2, Firefox ESR < 91.6.1, Firefox for Android < 97.3.0, Thunderbird < 91.6.2, and Focus < 97.3.0.
(CVE-2022-26486)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
