Alpine: multiple firefox-esr packages: security update to 91.4.0-r0

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 404458

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- Failure to correctly record the location of live pointers across wasm instance calls resulted in a GC
occurring within the call not tracing those live pointers. This could have led to a use-after-free causing
a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.4.0, Firefox ESR < 91.4.0,
and Firefox < 95. (CVE-2021-43539)

- Under certain circumstances, asynchronous functions could have caused a navigation to fail but expose the
target URL. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.4.0, Firefox ESR < 91.4.0, and Firefox < 95.
(CVE-2021-43536)

- An incorrect type conversion of sizes from 64bit to 32bit integers allowed an attacker to corrupt memory
leading to a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.4.0, Firefox ESR <
91.4.0, and Firefox < 95. (CVE-2021-43537)

- By misusing a race in our notification code, an attacker could have forcefully hidden the notification for
pages that had received full screen and pointer lock access, which could have been used for spoofing
attacks. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 91.4.0, Firefox ESR < 91.4.0, and Firefox < 95.
(CVE-2021-43538)
