The version of Mozilla Firefox ESR installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 60.2.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A potentially exploitable crash in TransportSecurityInfo used for     SSL can be triggered by data stored in the local cache in the user     profile directory. This issue is only exploitable in combination     with another vulnerability allowing an attacker to write data into     the local cache or from locally installed malware. This issue also     triggers a non-exploitable startup crash for users switching     between the Nightly and Release versions of Firefox if the same     profile is used. (CVE-2018-12385)

  - If a user saved passwords before Firefox 58 and then later set a     master password, an unencrypted copy of these passwords is still     accessible. This is because the older stored password file was not     deleted when the data was copied to a new format starting in     Firefox 58. The new master password is added only on the new file.
    This could allow the exposure of stored password data outside of     user expectations. (CVE-2018-12383)

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:2835 advisory.

    Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance, and     portability.

    This update upgrades Firefox to version 60.2.1 ESR.

    Security Fix(es):

    * Mozilla: Crash in TransportSecurityInfo due to cached data (CVE-2018-12385)

    * Mozilla: Setting a master password post-Firefox 58 does not delete unencrypted previously stored     passwords (CVE-2018-12383)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, and other related     information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

    Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges Philipp     and Jurgen Gaeremyn as the original reporters.

Bugx fixed :

  - Fixed a startup crash affecting users migrating from     older ESR releases

The version of Firefox installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 62.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the mfsa2018-22 advisory.

  - A potentially exploitable crash in <code>TransportSecurityInfo</code> used for SSL can be triggered by     data stored in the local cache in the user profile directory. This issue is only exploitable in     combination with another vulnerability allowing an attacker to write data into the local cache or from     locally installed malware. This issue also triggers a non-exploitable startup crash for users switching     between the Nightly and Release versions of Firefox if the same profile is used. (CVE-2018-12385)

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:2018-3370:06 advisory.

    * Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 62 and Firefox ESR 60.2 (CVE-2018-12376)
    * Mozilla: Use-after-free in driver timers (CVE-2018-12377)
    * Mozilla: Use-after-free in IndexedDB (CVE-2018-12378)
    * Mozilla: Proxy bypass using automount and autofs (CVE-2017-16541)
    * Mozilla: Out-of-bounds write with malicious MAR file (CVE-2018-12379)
    * Mozilla: Crash in TransportSecurityInfo due to cached data (CVE-2018-12385)
    * Mozilla: Setting a master password post-Firefox 58 does not delete unencrypted previously stored     passwords (CVE-2018-12383)     Note: All of the above issues cannot be exploited in Thunderbird by a specially crafted HTML mail, as     JavaScript is disabled for mail messages and cannot be enabled. They could be exploited another way in     Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the remote content of an RSS feed.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201811-13 (Mozilla Thunderbird: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla Thunderbird.
      Please review the referenced Mozilla Foundation Security Advisories and       CVE identifiers below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code, cause a Denial       of Service condition, obtain sensitive information, or conduct Cross-Site       Request Forgery (CSRF).
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3778-1 advisory.

    A crash was discovered in TransportSecurityInfo used for SSL, which could be triggered by data stored in     the local cache directory. An attacker could potentially exploit this in combination with another     vulnerability that allowed them to write data to the cache, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-12385)

    A type confusion bug was discovered in JavaScript. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted website, an attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2018-12386)

    It was discovered that the Array.prototype.push could leak memory addresses to the calling function in     some circumstances. An attacker could exploit this in combination with another vulnerability to help     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-12387)

TLS servers are able to handle a ClientHello statelessly, if the client supports TLS 1.3. If the server sends a HelloRetryRequest, it is possible to discard the server socket, and make a new socket to handle any subsequent ClientHello. This better enables stateless server operation. (This feature is added in support of QUIC, but it also has utility for DTLS 1.3 servers.)

Due to the update of mozilla-nss apache2-mod_nss needs to be updated to change to the SQLite certificate database, which is now the default (bsc#1108771)
