The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202407-19 (Mozilla Thunderbird: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla Thunderbird. Please review the CVE identifiers     referenced below for details.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Gentoo 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.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202405-32 (Mozilla Thunderbird: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - When storing and re-accessing data on a networking channel, the length of buffers may have been confused,     resulting in an out-of-bounds memory read. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8,     and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1546)

  - Through a series of API calls and redirects, an attacker-controlled alert dialog could have been displayed     on another website (with the victim website's URL shown). This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1547)

  - A website could have obscured the fullscreen notification by using a dropdown select input element. This     could have led to user confusion and possible spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1548)

  - If a website set a large custom cursor, portions of the cursor could have overlapped with the permission     dialog, potentially resulting in user confusion and unexpected granted permissions. This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1549)

  - A malicious website could have used a combination of exiting fullscreen mode and `requestPointerLock` to     cause the user's mouse to be re-positioned unexpectedly, which could have led to user confusion and     inadvertently granting permissions they did not intend to grant. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1550)

  - Set-Cookie response headers were being incorrectly honored in multipart HTTP responses. If an attacker     could control the Content-Type response header, as well as control part of the response body, they could     inject Set-Cookie response headers that would have been honored by the browser. This vulnerability affects     Firefox < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1551)

  - Incorrect code generation could have led to unexpected numeric conversions and potential undefined     behavior.*Note:* This issue only affects 32-bit ARM devices. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 123,     Firefox ESR < 115.8, and Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1552)

  - Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 122, Firefox ESR 115.7, and Thunderbird 115.7. 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 < 123, Firefox ESR < 115.8, and     Thunderbird < 115.8. (CVE-2024-1553)

  - The encrypted subject of an email message could be incorrectly and permanently assigned to an arbitrary     other email message in Thunderbird's local cache. Consequently, when replying to the contaminated email     message, the user might accidentally leak the confidential subject to a third party. While this update     fixes the bug and avoids future message contamination, it does not automatically repair existing     contaminations. Users are advised to use the repair folder functionality, which is available from the     context menu of email folders, which will erase incorrect subject assignments. This vulnerability affects     Thunderbird < 115.8.1. (CVE-2024-1936)

  - The permission prompt input delay could expire while the window is not in focus. This makes it vulnerable     to clickjacking by malicious websites. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 124, Firefox ESR < 115.10, and     Thunderbird < 115.10. (CVE-2024-2609)

  - There was no limit to the number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames that would be processed. A server could     abuse this to create an Out of Memory condition in the browser. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 125,     Firefox ESR < 115.10, and Thunderbird < 115.10. (CVE-2024-3302)

  - In some code patterns the JIT incorrectly optimized switch statements and generated code with out-of-     bounds-reads. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 125, Firefox ESR < 115.10, and Thunderbird < 115.10.
    (CVE-2024-3854)

  - The JIT created incorrect code for arguments in certain cases. This led to potential use-after-free     crashes during garbage collection. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 125, Firefox ESR < 115.10, and     Thunderbird < 115.10. (CVE-2024-3857)

  - On 32-bit versions there were integer-overflows that led to an out-of-bounds-read that potentially could     be triggered by a malformed OpenType font. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 125, Firefox ESR < 115.10,     and Thunderbird < 115.10. (CVE-2024-3859)

  - If an AlignedBuffer were assigned to itself, the subsequent self-move could result in an incorrect     reference count and later use-after-free. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 125, Firefox ESR < 115.10,     and Thunderbird < 115.10. (CVE-2024-3861)

  - Memory safety bug present in Firefox 124, Firefox ESR 115.9, and Thunderbird 115.9. This bug showed     evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort this could have been exploited to run     arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 125, Firefox ESR < 115.10, and Thunderbird < 115.10.
    (CVE-2024-3864)

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

The version of Firefox installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 125.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2024-18 advisory.

  - GetBoundName could return the wrong version of an object when JIT optimizations were applied.
    (CVE-2024-3852)

  - A use-after-free could result if a JavaScript realm was in the process of being initialized when a garbage     collection started. (CVE-2024-3853)

  - In some code patterns the JIT incorrectly optimized switch statements and generated code with out-of-     bounds-reads. (CVE-2024-3854)

  - In certain cases the JIT incorrectly optimized MSubstr operations, which led to out-of-bounds reads.
    (CVE-2024-3855)

  - A use-after-free could occur during WASM execution if garbage collection ran during the creation of an     array. (CVE-2024-3856)

  - The JIT created incorrect code for arguments in certain cases. This led to potential use-after-free     crashes during garbage collection. (CVE-2024-3857)

  - It was possible to mutate a JavaScript object so that the JIT could crash while tracing it.
    (CVE-2024-3858)

  - On 32-bit versions there were integer-overflows that led to an out-of-bounds-read that potentially could     be triggered by a malformed OpenType font. (CVE-2024-3859)

  - An out-of-memory condition during object initialization could result in an empty shape list. If the JIT     subsequently traced the object it would crash. (CVE-2024-3860)

  - If an AlignedBuffer were assigned to itself, the subsequent self-move could result in an incorrect     reference count and later use-after-free. (CVE-2024-3861)

  - The MarkStack assignment operator, part of the JavaScript engine, could access uninitialized memory if it     were used in a self-assignment. (CVE-2024-3862)

  - The executable file warning was not presented when downloading .xrm-ms files.   Note: This issue only     affected Windows operating systems. Other operating systems are unaffected. (CVE-2024-3863)

  - There was no limit to the number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames that would be processed. A server could     abuse this to create an Out of Memory condition in the browser. (CVE-2024-3302)

  - Memory safety bug present in Firefox 124, Firefox ESR 115.9, and Thunderbird 115.9. This bug showed     evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort this could have been exploited to run     arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-3864)

  - Memory safety bugs present in Firefox 124. 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-2024-3865)
