The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201605-06 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Firefox, NSS, NSPR, and       Thunderbird. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for       details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web       page or email, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a       Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able       to perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks, obtain sensitive information, spoof       the address bar, conduct clickjacking attacks, bypass security       restrictions and protection mechanisms, or have other unspecified       impacts.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The version of Firefox is prior to 44.0 and is affected by multiple vulnerabilities : 

 - Multiple unspecified memory corruption issues exist that allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1930, CVE-2016-1931)
 - An integer overflow condition exists due to improper parsing of GIF images during deinterlacing. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted GIF image, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1933)
 - A buffer overflow condition exists in WebGL that is triggered when handling cache out-of-memory error conditions. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1935)
 - A content spoofing vulnerability exists due to the protocol handler dialog treating double click events as two single click events. A remote attacker can exploit this to spoof content, allowing the attacker to trick a user into performing malicious actions. (CVE-2016-1937)
 - A cryptographic weakness exists in Network Security Services (NSS) due to incorrect calculations with 'mp_div' and 'mp_exptmod'. (CVE-2016-1938)
 - A cookie injection vulnerability exists due to illegal control characters being permitted in cookie names. A remote attacker can exploit this to inject cookies. (CVE-2016-1939)
 - A flaw exists that is triggered as the delay between the download dialog getting focus and the button getting enabled is too short. If a context-dependent attacker can trick a user into double clicking in a specific location, they can pass the second click through to a dialog below that location. This will allow the attacker to cause the user to perform unintentional actions. (CVE-2016-1941)
 - An URL spoofing vulnerability exists due to a flaw that is triggered during the handling of a URL that invalid for the internal protocol, causing the URL to be pasted into the address bar. A remote attacker can exploit this spoof URLs, allowing the attacker to trick a user into visiting a malicious website. (CVE-2016-1942)
 - An unspecified memory corruption issue exists in the ANGLE graphics library implementation. A remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1944)
 - A wild pointer flaw exists due to improper handling of ZIP files. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted ZIP file, to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2016-1945)
 - An integer overflow condition exists in the bundled version of libstagefright due to improper handling of MP4 file metadata. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1946)
 - A flaw exists in the safe browsing feature due to the Application Reputation service being unreachable. A remote attacker can exploit this to convince a user into downloading a malicious executable without being warned. (CVE-2016-1947)

USN-2880-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. This update introduced a regression which caused Firefox to crash on startup with some configurations. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Bob Clary, Christian Holler, Nils Ohlmeier, Gary Kwong, Jesse Ruderman, Carsten Book, Randell Jesup, Nicolas Pierron, Eric Rescorla, Tyson Smith, and Gabor Krizsanits discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2016-1930, CVE-2016-1931)

Gustavo Grieco discovered an out-of-memory crash when loading GIF images in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-1933)

Aki Helin discovered a buffer overflow when rendering WebGL content in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2016-1935)

It was discovered that a delay was missing when focusing the protocol handler dialog. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to conduct clickjacking attacks.
(CVE-2016-1937)

Hanno Bock discovered that calculations with mp_div and mp_exptmod in NSS produce incorrect results in some circumstances, resulting in cryptographic weaknesses.
(CVE-2016-1938)

Nicholas Hurley discovered that Firefox allows for control characters to be set in cookie names. An attacker could potentially exploit this to conduct cookie injection attacks on some web servers. (CVE-2016-1939)

It was discovered that when certain invalid URLs are pasted in to the addressbar, the addressbar contents may be manipulated to show the location of arbitrary websites. An attacker could potentially exploit this to conduct URL spoofing attacks. (CVE-2016-1942)

Ronald Crane discovered three vulnerabilities through code inspection. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2016-1944, CVE-2016-1945, CVE-2016-1946)

Francois Marier discovered that Application Reputation lookups didn't work correctly, disabling warnings for potentially malicious downloads. An attacker could potentially exploit this by tricking a user in to downloading a malicious file. Other parts of the Safe Browsing feature were unaffected by this. (CVE-2016-1947).
