Package : firefox-esr CVE ID : CVE-2024-9392 CVE-2024-9393 CVE-2024-9394 CVE-2024-9401

Multiple security issues have been found in the Mozilla Firefox web browser, which could potentially result in the execution of arbitrary code.

Debian follows the extended support releases (ESR) of Firefox.
Starting with this update we're now following the 128.x releases.

Between 115.x and 128.x, Firefox has seen a number of feature updates. For more information please refer to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/128.0esr/releasenotes/

For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 128.3.0esr-1~deb12u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your firefox-esr packages.

For the detailed security status of firefox-esr please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/firefox-esr

Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://www.debian.org/security/

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

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

Solution

Upgrade the firefox-esr packages.
