Alpine: firefox-esr: security update to 52.5.0-r0 (deprecated)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 400762

Description

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

- When Private Browsing mode is used, it is possible for a web worker to write persistent data to IndexedDB
and fingerprint a user uniquely. IndexedDB should not be available in Private Browsing mode and this
stored data will persist across multiple private browsing mode sessions because it is not cleared when
exiting. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 52.5.2 and Firefox < 57.0.1. (CVE-2017-7843)

- A buffer overflow occurs when drawing and validating elements using Direct 3D 9 with the ANGLE graphics
library, used for WebGL content. This is due to an incorrect value being passed within the library during
checks and results in a potentially exploitable crash. Note: This attack only affects Windows operating
systems. Other operating systems are unaffected. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.5.2, Firefox
ESR < 52.5.2, and Firefox < 57.0.2. (CVE-2017-7845)
