The remote host is running an older version of the Firefox browser. The installed version of Firefox is reported to be prone to a cross-domain scripting flaw. An attacker exploiting this flaw would need to be able to convince a user to browse to a malicious URI. Successful exploitation would result in the attacker executing malicious script code within the Firefox browser. In addition, the remote browser is vulnerable to a memory corruption and authentication bypass flaw. An attacker exploiting these flaws would be able to execute arbitrary code on the remote browser or gain access to critical functions.Solution
