Mozilla NSS was updated to 3.23 to address the following vulnerabilities :

  - CVE-2016-2834: Memory safety bugs (boo#983639     MFSA-2016-61)

    The following non-security changes are included :

  - Enable VP9 video codec for users with fast machines

  - Embedded YouTube videos now play with HTML5 video if     Flash is not installed

  - View and search open tabs from your smartphone or     another computer in a sidebar

  - Allow no-cache on back/forward navigations for https     resources

    The following packaging changes are included :

  - boo#981695: cleanup configure options, notably removing     GStreamer support which is gone from FF

  - boo#980384: enable build with PIE and full relro on     x86_64

    The following new functionality is provided :

  - ChaCha20/Poly1305 cipher and TLS cipher suites now     supported

  - The list of TLS extensions sent in the TLS handshake has     been reordered to increase compatibility of the Extended     Master Secret with with servers

The version of Firefox ESR installed on the remote Windows host is 45.x prior to 45.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2016-2818)

  - An overflow condition exists that is triggered when     handling HTML5 fragments in foreign contexts (e.g.,     under <svg> nodes). An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow,     resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-2819)

  - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when     deleting DOM table elements in 'contenteditable' mode.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     dereference already freed memory, resulting in the     execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2821)

  - A spoofing vulnerability exists due to improper handling     of SELECT elements. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to spoof the contents of the address     bar. (CVE-2016-2822)

  - An out-of-bounds write error exists in the ANGLE     graphics library due to improper size checking while     writing to an array during WebGL shader operations. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2824)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the     Windows updater utility due to improper extraction of     files from MAR archives. A local attacker can exploit     this to replace the extracted files, allowing the     attacker to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-2826)

  - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when     destroying the recycle pool of a texture used during the     processing of WebGL content. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed     memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-2828)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling paired     fullscreen and pointerlock requests in combination with     closing windows. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this to create an unauthorized pointerlock,     resulting in a denial of service condition.
    Additionally, an attacker can exploit this to conduct     spoofing and clickjacking attacks. (CVE-2016-2831)

The version of Firefox installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 47. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2016-2815, CVE-2016-2818)

  - An overflow condition exists that is triggered when     handling HTML5 fragments in foreign contexts (e.g.,     under <svg> nodes). An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow,     resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-2819)

  - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when     deleting DOM table elements in 'contenteditable' mode.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     dereference already freed memory, resulting in the     execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2821)

  - A spoofing vulnerability exists due to improper handling     of SELECT elements. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to spoof the contents of the address     bar. (CVE-2016-2822)

  - An out-of-bounds write error exists in the ANGLE     graphics library due to improper size checking while     writing to an array during WebGL shader operations. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2824)

  - A same-origin bypass vulnerability exists that is     triggered when handling location.host property values     set after the creation of invalid 'data:' URIs. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     partially bypass same-origin policy protections.
    (CVE-2016-2825)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the     Windows updater utility due to improper extraction of     files from MAR archives. A local attacker can exploit     this to replace the extracted files, allowing the     attacker to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-2826)

  - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when     destroying the recycle pool of a texture used during the     processing of WebGL content. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed     memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-2828)

  - A flaw exists in browser/modules/webrtcUI.jsm that is     triggered when handling a large number of permission     requests over a small period of time. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     cause the incorrect icon to be displayed in a given     permission request, potentially resulting in a user     approving unintended permission requests.
    (CVE-2016-2829)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling paired     fullscreen and pointerlock requests in combination with     closing windows. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this to create an unauthorized pointerlock,     resulting in a denial of service condition.
    Additionally, an attacker can exploit this to conduct     spoofing and clickjacking attacks. (CVE-2016-2831)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists that is     triggered when handling CSS pseudo-classes. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this     disclose a list of installed plugins. (CVE-2016-2832)

  - A Content Security Policy (CSP) bypass exists that is     triggered when handling specially crafted cross-domain     Java applets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this to bypass the CSP and conduct cross-site     scripting attacks. (CVE-2016-2833)

  - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the Mozilla Network     Security Services (NSS) component that allow an attacker     to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2016-2834)

Versions of Mozilla Firefox earlier than 45.2 are unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2815, CVE-2016-2818)
 - An overflow condition exists that is triggered when handling HTML5 fragments in foreign contexts (e.g., under <svg> nodes).  An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2819)
 - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when deleting DOM table elements in 'contenteditable' mode.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2821)
 - A spoofing vulnerability exists due to improper handling of SELECT elements.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to spoof the contents of the address bar. (CVE-2016-2822)
 - An out-of-bounds write flaw in 'TSymbolTableLevel' is triggered when size values for array writes are not properly checked during WebGL shader operations. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2824)
 - A flaw exists in the Windows updater utility's 'toolkit/mozapps/update/updater/updater.cpp' extraction of files from MAR archives.  These files are not properly locked for writing, which may allow a local attacker to replace these files and potentially leverage them to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-2826)
 - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when destroying the recycle pool of a texture used during the processing of WebGL content.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2828)
 - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling paired fullscreen and pointerlock requests in combination with closing windows.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to create an unauthorized pointerlock, resulting in a denial of service condition.  Additionally, an attacker can exploit this to conduct spoofing and clickjacking attacks. (CVE-2016-2831)
