The version of thunderbird installed on the remote host is prior to 115.15.0-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2638 advisory.

    An error in the ECMA-262 specification relating to Async Generators could have resulted in a type     confusion, potentially leading to memory corruption and an exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 128, Firefox ESR < 115.13, Thunderbird < 115.13, and Thunderbird < 128. (CVE-2024-7652)

    A potentially exploitable type confusion could be triggered when looking up a property name on an object     being used as the `with` environment. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 130, Firefox ESR < 128.2, and     Firefox ESR < 115.15. (CVE-2024-8381)

    Internal browser event interfaces were exposed to web content when privileged EventHandler listener     callbacks ran for those events. Web content that tried to use those interfaces would not be able to use     them with elevated privileges, but their presence would indicate certain browser features had been used,     such as when a user opened the Dev Tools console. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 130, Firefox ESR <     128.2, and Firefox ESR < 115.15. (CVE-2024-8382)

    The JavaScript garbage collector could mis-color cross-compartment objects if OOM conditions were detected     at the right point between two passes. This could have led to memory corruption. This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 130, Firefox ESR < 128.2, and Firefox ESR < 115.15. (CVE-2024-8384)

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

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