The version of thunderbird installed on the remote host is prior to 115.8.0-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2477 advisory.

    When storing and re-accessing data on a networking channel, the length of buffers may have been confused,     resulting in an out-of-bounds memory read. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8,     and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1546)

    Through a series of API calls and redirects, an attacker-controlled alert dialog could have been displayed     on another website (with the victim website's URL shown). This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1547)

    A website could have obscured the fullscreen notification by using a dropdown select input element. This     could have led to user confusion and possible spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1548)

    If a website set a large custom cursor, portions of the cursor could have overlapped with the permission     dialog, potentially resulting in user confusion and unexpected granted permissions. This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1549)

    A malicious website could have used a combination of exiting fullscreen mode and `requestPointerLock` to     cause the user's mouse to be re-positioned unexpectedly, which could have led to user confusion and     inadvertently granting permissions they did not intend to grant. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1550)

    Set-Cookie response headers were being incorrectly honored in multipart HTTP responses. If an attacker     could control the Content-Type response header, as well as control part of the response body, they could     inject Set-Cookie response headers that would have been honored by the browser. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1551)

    Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 122, Firefox ESR 115.7, and Thunderbird 115.7. 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 < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and     Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1553)

The version of Firefox installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 123.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2024-05 advisory.

  - When storing and re-accessing data on a networking channel, the length of buffers may have been confused,     resulting in an out-of-bounds memory read. (CVE-2024-1546)

  - Through a series of API calls and redirects, an attacker-controlled alert dialog could have been displayed     on another website (with the victim website's URL shown). (CVE-2024-1547)

  - The <code>fetch()</code> API and navigation incorrectly shared the same cache, as the cache key did not     include the optional headers <code>fetch()</code> may contain.  Under the correct circumstances, an     attacker may have been able to poison the local browser cache by priming it with a <code>fetch()</code>     response controlled by the additional headers. Upon navigation to the same URL, the user would see the     cached response instead of the expected response. (CVE-2024-1554)

  - A website could have obscured the fullscreen notification by using a dropdown select input element. This     could have led to user confusion and possible spoofing attacks. (CVE-2024-1548)

  - When opening a website using the <code>firefox://</code> protocol handler, SameSite cookies were not     properly respected. (CVE-2024-1555)

  - The incorrect object was checked for NULL in the built-in profiler, potentially leading to invalid memory     access and undefined behavior. Note: This issue only affects the application when the profiler is running.
    (CVE-2024-1556)

  - Incorrect code generation could have led to unexpected numeric conversions and potential undefined     behavior. Note: This issue only affects 32-bit ARM devices. (CVE-2024-1552)

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6649-1 advisory.

    Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially     crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain     sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-1547, CVE-2024-1548,     CVE-2024-1549, CVE-2024-1550, CVE-2024-1553, CVE-2024-1554, CVE-2024-1555, CVE-2024-1557)

    Alfred Peters discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when storing and re-accessing data on     a networking channel. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2024-1546)

    Johan Carlsson discovered that Firefox incorrectly handled Set-Cookie response headers in multipart HTTP     responses. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to inject arbitrary cookie values.
    (CVE-2024-1551)

    Gary Kwong discovered that Firefox incorrectly generated codes on 32-bit ARM devices, which could lead to     unexpected numeric conversions or undefined behaviour. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause     a denial of service. (CVE-2024-1552)

    Ronald Crane discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when accessing the built-in profiler.
