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-2023:3151 advisory.

 - In multiple cases browser prompts could have been obscured by popups controlled by content. These could have led to potential user confusion and spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11. (CVE-2023-32205)

 - An out-of-bound read could have led to a crash in the RLBox Expat driver. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11. (CVE-2023-32206)

 - A missing delay in popup notifications could have made it possible for an attacker to trick a user into granting permissions. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11. (CVE-2023-32207)

 - A type checking bug would have led to invalid code being compiled. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11. (CVE-2023-32211)

 - An attacker could have positioned a <code>datalist</code> element to obscure the address bar. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11. (CVE-2023-32212)

 - When reading a file, an uninitialized value could have been used as read limit. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11. (CVE-2023-32213)

 - Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 112 and Firefox ESR 102.10. 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 < 113, Firefox ESR < 102.11, and Thunderbird < 102.11.
 (CVE-2023-32215)

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