GLSA-201701-15

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201701-15 (Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird: Multiple vulnerabilities)

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

    A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition via       multiple vectors.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Versions of Mozilla Firefox earlier than 46.0 are unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an attacker to corrupt memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2804, CVE-2016-2806, CVE-2016-2807)
 - A flaw exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling the 32-bit generation count of the underlying HashMap.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this to cause a buffer overflow condition, resulting in a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2808)
 - A local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Maintenance Service updater due to improper handling of long log file paths.  A local attacker can exploit this to delete arbitrary files and gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-2809)
 - A remote code execution vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the 'BeginReading()' function.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2811)
 - A remote code execution vulnerability exists due to a race condition in 'ServiceWorkerManager' in the 'get()' function.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2812)
 - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the Google Stagefright component due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling CENC offsets and the sizes table.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2814)
 - A security bypass vulnerability exists due to the Content Security Policy (CSP) not being properly applied to web content sent with the 'multipart/x-mixed-replace' MIME-type.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this to bypass CSP protection. (CVE-2016-2816)
 - A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists due to improper restriction of unprivileged 'javascript: URL' navigation.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted request, to execute arbitrary script code in the context of a user's browser session. (CVE-2016-2817)
 - A flaw exists in the Firefox Health Report that is triggered when it accepts any content document events that are presented in its iframe.  A context-dependent attacker can exploit this to manipulate sharing preferences. (CVE-2016-2820)

USN-2936-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update caused an issue where a device update POST request was sent every time about:preferences#sync was shown. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Christian Holler, Tyson Smith, Phil Ringalda, Gary Kwong, Jesse Ruderman, Mats Palmgren, Carsten Book, Boris Zbarsky, David Bolter, Randell Jesup, Andrew McCreight, and Steve Fink 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-2016-2804, CVE-2016-2806, CVE-2016-2807)

An invalid write was discovered when using the JavaScript .watch() method 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-2016-2808)

Looben Yang discovered a use-after-free and buffer overflow in service workers. 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-2016-2811, CVE-2016-2812)

Sascha Just discovered a buffer overflow in libstagefright 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-2016-2814)

Muneaki Nishimura discovered that CSP is not applied correctly to web content sent with the multipart/x-mixed-replace MIME type. An attacker could potentially exploit this to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks when they would otherwise be prevented.
(CVE-2016-2816)

Muneaki Nishimura discovered that the chrome.tabs.update API for web extensions allows for navigation to javascript:
URLs. A malicious extension could potentially exploit this to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
(CVE-2016-2817)

Mark Goodwin discovered that about:healthreport accepts certain events from any content present in the remote-report iframe. If another vulnerability allowed the injection of web content in the remote-report iframe, an attacker could potentially exploit this to change the user's sharing preferences. (CVE-2016-2820).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
