Mozilla Firefox ESR < 52.6 Multiple Vulnerabilities
high Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 700334
Synopsis
The remote host has a web browser installed that is vulnerable to multiple attack vectors.Description
Versions of Mozilla Firefox ESR earlier than 52.6 are unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :- An integer overflow that is triggered when allocating memory for edge builders. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when the source document for XSL transformation is manipulated by script content during the transformation. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists in 'layout/forms/nsNumberControlFrame.cpp' that is triggered when handling form input elements. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists in the widget listener. The issue is triggered when holding strong references to browser objects. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists in 'dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp' that is triggered when handling specially crafted HTML media elements. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists in the 'EventStateManager::DispatchMouseOrPointerEvent()' function in 'dom/events/EventStateManager.cpp' that is triggered when handling mouse events. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when handling font faces. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A flaw exists in 'browser/base/content/browser.js' that is triggered when right-to-left text is used in the address bar with left-to-right alignment. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to spoof the URL bar.
- A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when WebRTC connections interact with DTMF timers. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when editing events in form elements on a page. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A flaw exists in the 'JSStructuredCloneReader::readV1ArrayBuffer()' function in 'js/src/vm/StructuredClone.cpp' that is triggered when deserializing invalid typed arrays. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in the 'MediaEngineDefaultVideoSource::Allocate()' function in 'dom/media/webrtc/MediaEngineDefault.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'toolkit/components/places/History.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A flaw exists in the 'nsCookieService::RemoveCookiesWithOriginAttributes()' function in 'netwerk/cookie/nsCookieService.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in the Skia component that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'startupcache/StartupCache.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'dom/media/GraphDriver.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'media/webrtc/signaling/src/media-conduit/WebrtcGmpVideoCodec.h' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A flaw exists in the 'WebrtcGmpVideoDecoder::ReleaseGmp()' function in 'media/webrtc/signaling/src/media-conduit/WebrtcGmpVideoCodec.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'dom/base/DirectionalityUtils.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- A flaw exists in the 'nsCookieService::PurgeCookies()' function in 'netwerk/cookie/nsCookieService.cpp' that is triggered when handling cookie expiry. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'media/webrtc/signaling/src/peerconnection/PeerConnectionImpl.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified race condition exists in 'modules/libjar/nsJAR.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified race condition exists in 'netwerk/base/AutoClose.h' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
- An unspecified flaw exists in 'js/src/vm/StructuredClone.cpp' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
