Update to latest upstream.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The installed version of Firefox is a version prior to 29.0 and is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An issue exists in the Network Security (NSS) library     due to improper handling of IDNA domain prefixes for     wildcard certificates. This issue could allow man-in-     the-middle attacks. (CVE-2014-1492)

  - Memory issues exist that could lead to arbitrary code     execution. (CVE-2014-1518, CVE-2014-1519)

  - An issue exists related to the 'Mozilla Maintenance     Service' that could lead to privilege escalation due to     the creation of a writeable temporary directory during     the update process. (CVE-2014-1520)

  - An out-of-bounds read issue exists in the Web Audio     feature that could lead to information disclosure.
    (CVE-2014-1522)

  - An out-of-bounds read issue exists when decoding     certain JPG images that could lead to a denial of     service. (CVE-2014-1523)

  - A memory corruption issue exists due to improper     validation of XBL objects that could lead to arbitrary     code execution. (CVE-2014-1524)

  - A use-after-free memory issue exists in the Text Track     Manager during HTML video processing that could lead     to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-1525)

  - An issue exists related to the debugger bypassing     XrayWrappers that could lead to privilege escalation.
    (CVE-2014-1526)

  - An out-of-bounds write issue exists in the Cairo     graphics library that could lead to arbitrary code     execution.	Note that this issue only affects Firefox     28 and SeaMonkey 2.25. (CVE-2014-1528)

  - A security bypass issue exists in the Web Notification     API that could lead to arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2014-1529)

  - A cross-site scripting issue exists that could allow an     attacker to load another website other than the URL for     the website that is shown in the address bar.
    (CVE-2014-1530)

  - A use-after-free issue exists due to an 'imgLoader'     object being freed when being resized.  This issue     could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-1531)

  - A use-after-free issue exists during host resolution     that could lead to arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2014-1532)

The installed version of Firefox ESR 24.x is a version prior to 24.5.

  - An issue exists related to the 'Mozilla Maintenance     Service' that could lead to privilege escalation due to     the creation of a writeable temporary directory during     the update process. (CVE-2014-1520)

  - An out-of-bounds read issue exists when decoding     certain JPG images that could lead to a denial of     service. (CVE-2014-1523)

  - A memory corruption issue exists due to improper     validation of XBL objects that could lead to arbitrary     code execution. (CVE-2014-1524)

  - A security bypass issue exists in the Web Notification     API that could lead to arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2014-1529)

  - A cross-site scripting issue exists that could allow an     attacker to load another website other than the URL for     the website that is shown in the address bar.
    (CVE-2014-1530)

  - A use-after-free issue exists due to an 'imgLoader'     object being freed when being resized.  This issue     could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-1531)

  - A use-after-free issue exists during host resolution     that could lead to arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2014-1532)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201504-01 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Firefox, Thunderbird,       and SeaMonkey. 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       impact.
  Workaround :

    There are no known workarounds at this time.

Versions of Mozilla Firefox ESR prior to 24.5 are unpatched against the following vulnerabilities :

 - Use-after-free vulnerabilities in nsHostResolver, imgLoader, and Text Track Manager (for HTML video), which can crash with a potentially exploitable condition (CVE-2014-1532, CVE-2014-1531, CVE-2014-1525)

 - Improper wildcard matching of domains in the Network Security Services (NSS library), which has since been fixed by updating to version 3.16 (CVE-2014-1492)
