TencentOS Server 2: firefox (TSSA-2024:0373)

high Nessus Plugin ID 239143

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 2 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 2 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2024:0373 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 2 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2024-6601:
A race condition could lead to a cross-origin container obtaining permissions of the top-level origin.
This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128 and Firefox ESR < 115.13.

CVE-2024-6603:
In an out-of-memory scenario an allocation could fail but free would have been called on the pointer afterwards leading to memory corruption. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 128 and Firefox ESR < 115.13.

CVE-2024-6604:
Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 127, Firefox ESR 115.12, and Thunderbird 115.12. 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 < 128 and Firefox ESR < 115.13.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
