When constructing a permission prompt for WebRTC, a URI was supplied from the content process. This URI was untrusted, and could have been the URI of an origin that was previously granted permission; bypassing the prompt. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has firefox packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - In non-standard configurations, a JPEG image created by JavaScript could have caused an internal variable     to overflow, resulting in an out of bounds write, memory corruption, and a potentially exploitable crash.
    This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12422)

  - When constructing a permission prompt for WebRTC, a URI was supplied from the content process. This URI     was untrusted, and could have been the URI of an origin that was previously granted permission; bypassing     the prompt. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12424)

  - Due to confusion processing a hyphen character in Date.parse(), a one-byte out of bounds read could have     occurred, leading to potential information disclosure. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12425)

  - Using object or embed tags, it was possible to frame other websites, even if they disallowed framing using     the X-Frame-Options header. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 78 and Firefox < 78.0.2.
    (CVE-2020-15648)

  - An iframe sandbox element with the allow-popups flag could be bypassed when using noopener links. This     could have led to security issues for websites relying on sandbox configurations that allowed popups and     hosted arbitrary content. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird <     78.1. (CVE-2020-15653)

  - When in an endless loop, a website specifying a custom cursor using CSS could make it look like the user     is interacting with the user interface, when they are not. This could lead to a perceived broken state,     especially when interactions with existing browser dialogs and warnings do not work. This vulnerability     affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird < 78.1. (CVE-2020-15654)

  - JIT optimizations involving the Javascript arguments object could confuse later optimizations. This risk     was already mitigated by various precautions in the code, resulting in this bug rated at only moderate     severity. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird < 78.1.
    (CVE-2020-15656)

  - The code for downloading files did not properly take care of special characters, which led to an attacker     being able to cut off the file ending at an earlier position, leading to a different file type being     downloaded than shown in the dialog. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and     Thunderbird < 78.1. (CVE-2020-15658)

  - Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 80 and Firefox ESR 78.2. 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 < 81, Thunderbird < 78.3, and     Firefox ESR < 78.3. (CVE-2020-15673)

  - Firefox sometimes ran the onload handler for SVG elements that the DOM sanitizer decided to remove,     resulting in JavaScript being executed after pasting attacker-controlled data into a contenteditable     element. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 81, Thunderbird < 78.3, and Firefox ESR < 78.3.
    (CVE-2020-15676)

  - By exploiting an Open Redirect vulnerability on a website, an attacker could have spoofed the site     displayed in the download file dialog to show the original site (the one suffering from the open redirect)     rather than the site the file was actually downloaded from. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 81,     Thunderbird < 78.3, and Firefox ESR < 78.3. (CVE-2020-15677)

  - When recursing through graphical layers while scrolling, an iterator may have become invalid, resulting in     a potential use-after-free. This occurs because the function     APZCTreeManager::ComputeClippedCompositionBounds did not follow iterator invalidation rules. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 81, Thunderbird < 78.3, and Firefox ESR < 78.3. (CVE-2020-15678)

  - Mozilla developers and community members reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 81 and Firefox ESR     78.3.

  - Uninitialized Use in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 87.0.4280.88 allowed a remote attacker to obtain     potentially sensitive information from process memory via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2020-16042)

  - In certain circumstances, the MCallGetProperty opcode can be emitted with unmet assumptions resulting in     an exploitable use-after-free condition. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 82.0.3, Firefox ESR <     78.4.1, and Thunderbird < 78.4.2. (CVE-2020-26950)

  - A parsing and event loading mismatch in Firefox's SVG code could have allowed load events to fire, even     after sanitization. An attacker already capable of exploiting an XSS vulnerability in privileged internal     pages could have used this attack to bypass our built-in sanitizer. This vulnerability affects Firefox <     83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26951)

  - It was possible to cause the browser to enter fullscreen mode without displaying the security UI; thus     making it possible to attempt a phishing attack or otherwise confuse the user. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26953)

  - In some cases, removing HTML elements during sanitization would keep existing SVG event handlers and     therefore lead to XSS. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird <     78.5. (CVE-2020-26956)

  - Firefox did not block execution of scripts with incorrect MIME types when the response was intercepted and     cached through a ServiceWorker. This could lead to a cross-site script inclusion vulnerability, or a     Content Security Policy bypass. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and     Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26958)

  - During browser shutdown, reference decrementing could have occured on a previously freed object, resulting     in a use-after-free, memory corruption, and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26959)

  - If the Compact() method was called on an nsTArray, the array could have been reallocated without updating     other pointers, leading to a potential use-after-free and exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26960)

  - When DNS over HTTPS is in use, it intentionally filters RFC1918 and related IP ranges from the responses     as these do not make sense coming from a DoH resolver. However when an IPv4 address was mapped through     IPv6, these addresses were erroneously let through, leading to a potential DNS Rebinding attack. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26961)

  - Some websites have a feature Show Password where clicking a button will change a password field into a     textbook field, revealing the typed password. If, when using a software keyboard that remembers user     input, a user typed their password and used that feature, the type of the password field was changed,     resulting in a keyboard layout change and the possibility for the software keyboard to remember the typed     password. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and Thunderbird < 78.5.
    (CVE-2020-26965)

  - Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 82 and Firefox ESR 78.4. 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 < 83, Firefox ESR < 78.5, and     Thunderbird < 78.5. (CVE-2020-26968)

  - Certain blit values provided by the user were not properly constrained leading to a heap buffer overflow     on some video drivers. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84, Thunderbird < 78.6, and Firefox ESR <     78.6. (CVE-2020-26971)

  - Certain input to the CSS Sanitizer confused it, resulting in incorrect components being removed. This     could have been used as a sanitizer bypass. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84, Thunderbird < 78.6,     and Firefox ESR < 78.6. (CVE-2020-26973)

  - When flex-basis was used on a table wrapper, a StyleGenericFlexBasis object could have been incorrectly     cast to the wrong type. This resulted in a heap user-after-free, memory corruption, and a potentially     exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84, Thunderbird < 78.6, and Firefox ESR < 78.6.
    (CVE-2020-26974)

  - Using techniques that built on the slipstream research, a malicious webpage could have exposed both an     internal network's hosts as well as services running on the user's local machine. This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 84, Thunderbird < 78.6, and Firefox ESR < 78.6. (CVE-2020-26978)

  - When an extension with the proxy permission registered to receive <all_urls>, the proxy.onRequest callback     was not triggered for view-source URLs. While web content cannot navigate to such URLs, a user opening     View Source could have inadvertently leaked their IP address. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 84,     Thunderbird < 78.6, and Firefox ESR < 78.6. (CVE-2020-35111)

  - Due to confusion processing a hyphen character in Date.parse(), a one-byte out of bounds read could have     occurred, leading to potential information disclosure. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12425)

  - An iframe sandbox element with the allow-popups flag could be bypassed when using noopener links. This     could have led to security issues for websites relying on sandbox configurations that allowed popups and     hosted arbitrary content. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird <     78.1. (CVE-2020-15653)

  - JIT optimizations involving the Javascript arguments object could confuse later optimizations. This risk     was already mitigated by various precautions in the code, resulting in this bug rated at only moderate     severity. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird < 78.1.
    (CVE-2020-15656)

  - The code for downloading files did not properly take care of special characters, which led to an attacker     being able to cut off the file ending at an earlier position, leading to a different file type being     downloaded than shown in the dialog. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and     Thunderbird < 78.1. (CVE-2020-15658)

  - When in an endless loop, a website specifying a custom cursor using CSS could make it look like the user     is interacting with the user interface, when they are not. This could lead to a perceived broken state,     especially when interactions with existing browser dialogs and warnings do not work. This vulnerability     affects Firefox ESR < 78.1, Firefox < 79, and Thunderbird < 78.1. (CVE-2020-15654)

  - By holding a reference to the eval() function from an about:blank window, a malicious webpage could have     gained access to the InstallTrigger object which would allow them to prompt the user to install an     extension. Combined with user confusion, this could result in an unintended or malicious extension being     installed. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 80, Thunderbird < 78.2, Thunderbird < 68.12, Firefox ESR <     68.12, Firefox ESR < 78.2, and Firefox for Android < 80. (CVE-2020-15664)

  - When aborting an operation, such as a fetch, an abort signal may be deleted while alerting the objects to     be notified. This results in a use-after-free and we presume that with enough effort it could have been     exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 68.12 and Thunderbird < 68.12.

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15:Update update project.

The version of Thunderbird installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 78.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2020-29 advisory.

  - When %2F was present in a manifest URL, Firefox's     AppCache behavior may have become confused and allowed a     manifest to be served from a subdirectory. This could     cause the appcache to be used to service requests for     the top level directory. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12415)

  - A VideoStreamEncoder may have been freed in a race     condition with VideoBroadcaster::AddOrUpdateSink,     resulting in a use-after-free, memory corruption, and a     potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12416)

  - Due to confusion about ValueTags on JavaScript Objects,     an object may pass through the type barrier, resulting     in memory corruption and a potentially exploitable     crash. *Note: this issue only affects Firefox on ARM64     platforms.* This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR <     68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.
    (CVE-2020-12417)

  - Manipulating individual parts of a URL object could have     caused an out-of-bounds read, leaking process memory to     malicious JavaScript. This vulnerability affects Firefox     ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.
    (CVE-2020-12418)

  - When processing callbacks that occurred during window     flushing in the parent process, the associated window     may die; causing a use-after-free condition. This could     have led to memory corruption and a potentially     exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox     ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.
    (CVE-2020-12419)

  - When trying to connect to a STUN server, a race     condition could have caused a use-after-free of a     pointer, leading to memory corruption and a potentially     exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox     ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.
    (CVE-2020-12420)

  - During RSA key generation, bignum implementations used a     variation of the Binary Extended Euclidean Algorithm     which entailed significantly input-dependent flow. This     allowed an attacker able to perform electromagnetic-     based side channel attacks to record traces leading to     the recovery of the secret primes. *Note:* An unmodified     Firefox browser does not generate RSA keys in normal     operation and is not affected, but products built on top     of it might. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12402)

  - When performing add-on updates, certificate chains     terminating in non-built-in-roots were rejected (even if     they were legitimately added by an administrator.) This     could have caused add-ons to become out-of-date silently     without notification to the user. This vulnerability     affects Firefox ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and     Thunderbird < 68.10.0. (CVE-2020-12421)

  - In non-standard configurations, a JPEG image created by     JavaScript could have caused an internal variable to     overflow, resulting in an out of bounds write, memory     corruption, and a potentially exploitable crash. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12422)

  - When the Windows DLL webauthn.dll was missing from the     Operating System, and a malicious one was placed in a     folder in the user's %PATH%, Firefox may have loaded the     DLL, leading to arbitrary code execution. *Note: This     issue only affects the Windows operating system; other     operating systems are unaffected.* This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12423)

  - When constructing a permission prompt for WebRTC, a URI     was supplied from the content process. This URI was     untrusted, and could have been the URI of an origin that     was previously granted permission; bypassing the prompt.
    This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12424)

  - Due to confusion processing a hyphen character in     Date.parse(), a one-byte out of bounds read could have     occurred, leading to potential information disclosure.
    This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12425)

  - Mozilla developers and community members reported memory     safety bugs present in Firefox 77. 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 < 78. (CVE-2020-12426)

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

The version of Thunderbird installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 78.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2020-29 advisory.

    (CVE-2020-12418)

  - When processing callbacks that occurred during window     flushing in the parent process, the associated window     may die; causing a use-after-free condition. This could     have led to memory corruption and a potentially     exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox     ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.
    (CVE-2020-12419)

  - When trying to connect to a STUN server, a race     condition could have caused a use-after-free of a     pointer, leading to memory corruption and a potentially     exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox     ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and Thunderbird < 68.10.0.

This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12402)

  - When performing add-on updates, certificate chains     terminating in non-built-in-roots were rejected (even if     they were legitimately added by an administrator.) This     could have caused add-ons to become out-of-date silently     without notification to the user. This vulnerability     affects Firefox ESR < 68.10, Firefox < 78, and     Thunderbird < 68.10.0. (CVE-2020-12421)

  - In non-standard configurations, a JPEG image created by     JavaScript could have caused an internal variable to     overflow, resulting in an out of bounds write, memory     corruption, and a potentially exploitable crash. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12422)

  - When the Windows DLL webauthn.dll was missing from the     Operating System, and a malicious one was placed in a     folder in the user's %PATH%, Firefox may have loaded the     DLL, leading to arbitrary code execution. *Note: This     issue only affects the Windows operating system; other     operating systems are unaffected.* This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 78. (CVE-2020-12423)

  - When constructing a permission prompt for WebRTC, a URI     was supplied from the content process. This URI was     untrusted, and could have been the URI of an origin that     was previously granted permission; bypassing the prompt.
    This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12424)

  - Due to confusion processing a hyphen character in     Date.parse(), a one-byte out of bounds read could have     occurred, leading to potential information disclosure.
    This vulnerability affects Firefox < 78.
    (CVE-2020-12425)

  - Mozilla developers and community members reported memory     safety bugs present in Firefox 77. 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 < 78. (CVE-2020-12426)

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

Multiple security issues were discovered 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, obtain sensitive information, bypass permission prompts, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-12415, CVE-2020-12416, CVE-2020-12417, CVE-2020-12418, CVE-2020-12419, CVE-2020-12420, CVE-2020-12422, CVE-2020-12424, CVE-2020-12425, CVE-2020-12426) It was discovered that when performing add-on updates, certificate chains not terminating with built-in roots were silently rejected. This could result in add-ons becoming outdated. (CVE-2020-12421).
