  - libpng: use-after-free in png_image_free in png.c     (CVE-2019-7317)

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has firefox packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A possible vulnerability exists where type confusion can     occur when manipulating JavaScript objects in object     groups, allowing for the bypassing of security checks     within these groups. *Note: this vulnerability has only     been demonstrated with UnboxedObjects, which are     disabled by default on all supported releases.*. This     vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox < 67,     and Firefox ESR < 60.7. (CVE-2019-9816)

  - png_image_free in png.c in libpng 1.6.36 has a use-     after-free because png_image_free_function is called     under png_safe_execute. (CVE-2019-7317)

  - If a crafted hyperlink is dragged and dropped to the     bookmark bar or sidebar and the resulting bookmark is     subsequently dragged and dropped into the web content     area, an arbitrary query of a user's browser history can     be run and transmitted to the content page via drop     event data. This allows for the theft of browser history     by a malicious site. This vulnerability affects     Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox < 67, and Firefox ESR <     60.7. (CVE-2019-11698)

  - Lack of correct bounds checking in Skia in Google Chrome     prior to 73.0.3683.75 allowed a remote attacker to     perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML     page. (CVE-2019-5798)

  - Cross-origin images can be read from a canvas element in     violation of the same-origin policy using the     transferFromImageBitmap method. *Note: This only affects     Firefox 65. Previous versions are unaffected.*. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 65.0.1. (CVE-2018-18511)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when working     with XMLHttpRequest (XHR) in an event loop, causing the     XHR main thread to be called after it has been freed.
    This results in a potentially exploitable crash. This     vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox < 67,     and Firefox ESR < 60.7. (CVE-2019-11691)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when listeners     are removed from the event listener manager while still     in use, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash.
    This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox <     67, and Firefox ESR < 60.7. (CVE-2019-11692)

  - The bufferdata function in WebGL is vulnerable to a     buffer overflow with specific graphics drivers on Linux.
    This could result in malicious content freezing a tab or     triggering a potentially exploitable crash. *Note: this     issue only occurs on Linux. Other operating systems are     unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird <     60.7, Firefox < 67, and Firefox ESR < 60.7.
    (CVE-2019-11693)

  - Cross-origin images can be read in violation of the     same-origin policy by exporting an image after using     createImageBitmap to read the image and then rendering     the resulting bitmap image within a canvas element. This     vulnerability affects Firefox < 66. (CVE-2019-9797)

  - Mozilla developers and community members reported memory     safety bugs present in Firefox 66, Firefox ESR 60.6, and     Thunderbird 60.6. Some of these bugs showed evidence of     memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort     that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary     code. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.7,     Firefox < 67, and Firefox ESR < 60.7. (CVE-2019-9800)

  - Images from a different domain can be read using a     canvas object in some circumstances. This could be used     to steal image data from a different site in violation     of same-origin policy. This vulnerability affects     Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox < 67, and Firefox ESR <     60.7. (CVE-2019-9817)

  - A vulnerability where a JavaScript compartment mismatch     can occur while working with the fetch API, resulting in     a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability     affects Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox < 67, and Firefox     ESR < 60.7. (CVE-2019-9819)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability can occur in the chrome     event handler when it is freed while still in use. This     results in a potentially exploitable crash. This     vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.7, Firefox < 67,     and Firefox ESR < 60.7. (CVE-2019-9820)

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

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2019-3898:02 advisory.
