The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201605-06 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Firefox, NSS, NSPR, and       Thunderbird. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for       details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web       page or email, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a       Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able       to perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks, obtain sensitive information, spoof       the address bar, conduct clickjacking attacks, bypass security       restrictions and protection mechanisms, or have other unspecified       impacts.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

 (CVE-2016-1948)

- Mozilla Firefox contains a flaw in the protocol handler in toolkit/mozapps/handling/content/dialog.js that is due to the handler treating double click events as two single click events. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to spoof content to cause a user to potentially perform malicious actions, such as downloading attacker controlled software. (CVE-2016-1937)

- Mozilla Firefox for Mac OS X contains a flaw that is triggered as the delay between the download dialog getting focus and the button getting enabled is too short. If a context-dependent attacker can trick a user into double clicking in a specific location, they can pass the second click through to a dialog below that location. This will allow the attacker to cause the user to perform unintentional actions. (CVE-2016-1941)

- Mozilla Firefox contains a flaw in browser/base/content/urlbarBindings.xml that is triggered during the handling of a URL that is invalid for the internal protocol, which will cause the URL to be pasted into the address bar.

- Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) contains a use-after-free error in the ssl3_HandleECDHServerKeyExchange() function. The issue is triggered when handling failed allocations during DHE and ECDHE handshakes.
