The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2712-1 advisory.

    Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, and Byron Campen discovered multiple memory safety issues in Thunderbird. If     a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit these     to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges ofthe     user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2015-4473)

    Ronald Crane reported 3 security issues. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted message,     an attacker could potentially exploit these, in combination with another security vulnerability, to cause     a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user     invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2015-4487, CVE-2015-4488, CVE-2015-4489)

    Gustavo Grieco discovered a heap overflow in gdk-pixbuf. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application     crash or execute arbitrary code with the priviliges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2015-4491)

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

The version of Firefox installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 40. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow a     remote attacker, via a specially crafted web page, to     corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-4473)

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow a     remote attacker, via a specially crafted web page, to     corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-4474)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the     PlayFromAudioQueue() function due to improper handling     of mismatched sample formats. A remote attacker can     exploit this, via a specially crafted MP3 file, to     disclose memory contents or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-4475)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the Web Audio API     during MediaStream playback. A remote attacker can     exploit this to dereference already freed memory,     resulting in the potential execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-4477)

  - A same-origin policy bypass vulnerability exists due to     non-configurable properties being redefined in violation     of the ECMAScript 6 standard during JSON parsing. A     remote attacker can exploit this, by editing these     properties to arbitrary values, to bypass the     same-origin policy. (CVE-2015-4478)

  - Multiple integer overflow conditions exist due to     improper validation of user-supplied input when handling     'saio' chunks in MPEG4 video. A remote attacker can     exploit this, via a specially crafted MPEG4 file, to     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4479)

  - An integer overflow condition exists in the bundled     libstagefright component when handling H.264 media     content. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted MPEG4 file, to execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-4480)

  - An out-of-bounds write error exists due to an array     indexing flaw in the mar_consume_index() function when     handling index names in MAR files. An attacker can     exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4482)

  - A security bypass vulnerability exists due to a flaw in     the ShouldLoad() function that occurs during the     handling of POST requests to URLs using the 'feed:' URI     handler. An attacker can exploit this to bypass the     mixed content blocker. (CVE-2015-4483)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling     JavaScript using shared memory without properly gating     access to Atomics and SharedArrayBuffer views. An     attacker can exploit this to crash the program,     resulting in a denial of service condition.
    (CVE-2015-4484)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow condition exists in the     resize_context_buffers() function due to improper     validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can     exploit this, via specially crafted WebM content, to     cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the     execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4485)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow condition exists in the     decrease_ref_count() function due to improper validation     of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit     this, via specially crafted WebM content, to cause a     heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the execution     of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4486)

  - A buffer overflow condition exists in the ReplacePrep()     function. A remote attacker can exploit this to cause a     buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary     code. (CVE-2015-4487)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the operator=()     function. An attacker can exploit this to dereference     already freed memory, resulting in the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4488)

  - A memory corruption issue exists in the nsTArray_Impl()     function due to improper validation of user-supplied     input during self-assignment. An attacker can exploit     this to corrupt memory, resulting in the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4489)

  - A security bypass vulnerability exists due to a     discrepancy in the implementation of Content Security     Policy and the CSP specification. The specification     states that 'blob:', 'data:', and 'filesystem:' URLs     should be excluded in case of a wildcard when matching     source expressions, but Mozilla's implementation allows     these in the case of an asterisk wildcard. A remote     attacker can exploit this to bypass restrictions.
    (CVE-2015-4490)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the     XMLHttpRequest::Open() function due to improper handling     of recursive calls. An attacker can exploit this to     dereference already freed memory, resulting in the     execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-4492)

  - An integer underflow condition exists in the bundled     libstagefright library. An attacker can exploit this to     crash the application, resulting in a denial of service     condition. (CVE-2015-4493)

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2015-442:07 advisory.

    Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards     compliance, performance and portability.
    With this update, following issues are fixed:
    * CVE-2015-4473:
    Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and Firefox ESR     38.x before 38.2     allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash)     or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
    * CVE-2015-4475:
    The mozilla::AudioSink function in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 mishandles     inconsistent     sample formats within MP3 audio data, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code     or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a malformed file.

    The js::jit::AssemblerX86Shared::lock_addl function in the JavaScript implementation in Mozilla Firefox     before 40.0     and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash)     by     leveraging the use of shared memory and accessing (1) an Atomics object or (2) a SharedArrayBuffer object.
    * CVE-2015-4485:
    Heap-based buffer overflow in the resize_context_buffers function in libvpx in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0     and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed WebM     video data.
    * CVE-2015-4486:
    The decrease_ref_count function in libvpx in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2     allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via     malformed WebM video data.
    * CVE-2015-4487:
    The nsTSubstring::ReplacePrep function in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0, Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2, and     Firefox OS before 2.2     might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption)     or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors, related to an overflow.
    * CVE-2015-4488:
    Use-after-free vulnerability in the StyleAnimationValue class in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0, Firefox ESR     38.x before 38.2,     and Firefox OS before 2.2 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact by leveraging a     StyleAnimationValue::operator self assignment.
    * CVE-2015-4489:
    The nsTArray_Impl class in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0, Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2, and Firefox OS     before 2.2     might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly     have unspecified other impact by leveraging a self assignment.
    * CVE-2015-4491:
    Integer overflow in the make_filter_table function in pixops/pixops.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.31.5, as used     in Mozilla Firefox     before 40.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 on Linux, Google Chrome on Linux, and other products, allows     remote attackers     to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash)     via crafted bitmap     dimensions that are mishandled during scaling.
    * CVE-2015-4492:
    Use-after-free vulnerability in the XMLHttpRequest::Open implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and     Firefox ESR 38.x     before 38.2 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a SharedWorker object that makes     recursive calls     to the open method of an XMLHttpRequest object.
