TencentOS Server 3: firefox (TSSA-2023:0043)

high Nessus Plugin ID 239802

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 3 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2023:0043 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2023-25752:
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue that when accessing throttled streams, the count of available bytes needs to be checked in the calling function to be within bounds. This may have led future code to be incorrect and vulnerable.

CVE-2023-25751:
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue of invalidating JIT code while following an iterator. The newly generated code could be overwritten incorrectly, leading to a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2023-28176:
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory described the issue in which Mozilla developers Timothy Nikkel, Andrew McCreight, and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 110 and ESR 102.8. 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.

CVE-2023-28164:
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory described the issue of dragging a URL from a cross-origin iframe that was removed during the drag could have led to user confusion and website spoofing attacks.

CVE-2023-28162:
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue that while implementing AudioWorklets, some code may have cast one type to another, invalid, dynamic type. This could have led to a potentially exploitable crash.

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.
