Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2015-966:04 advisory.

 Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and portability.
 Security issues fixed with this release:
 CVE-2015-7201 Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
 CVE-2015-7205 Integer underflow in the RTPReceiverVideo::ParseRtpPacket function in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a crafted WebRTC RTP packet.
 CVE-2015-7210 Use-after-free vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering attempted use of a data channel that has been closed by a WebRTC function.
 CVE-2015-7212 Integer overflow in the mozilla::layers::BufferTextureClient::AllocateForSurface function in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering a graphics operation that requires a large texture allocation.
 CVE-2015-7213 Integer overflow in the MPEG4Extractor::readMetaData function in MPEG4Extractor.cpp in libstagefright in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 on 64-bit platforms allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted MP4 video file that triggers a buffer overflow.
 CVE-2015-7214 Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 allow remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via data: and view-source: URIs.
 CVE-2015-7222 Integer underflow in the Metadata::setData function in MetaData.cpp in libstagefright in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (incorrect memory allocation and application crash) via an MP4 video file with crafted covr metadata that triggers a buffer overflow.

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

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