The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 / 5 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2008:0976 advisory.

    Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client.

    Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed HTML mail content.
    An HTML mail message containing malicious content could cause Thunderbird     to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running     Thunderbird. (CVE-2008-5014, CVE-2008-5016, CVE-2008-5017, CVE-2008-5018,     CVE-2008-5021)

    Several flaws were found in the way malformed HTML mail content was     processed. An HTML mail message containing specially-crafted content could     potentially trick a Thunderbird user into surrendering sensitive     information. (CVE-2008-5012, CVE-2008-5022, CVE-2008-5024)

    All Thunderbird users should upgrade to these updated packages, which     resolve these issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

This update brings the Mozilla Firefox browser to version 2.0.0.18.

It fixes following security issues :

  - The http-index-format MIME type parser     (nsDirIndexParser) in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox     2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13     does not check for an allocation failure, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)     and possibly execute arbitrary code via an HTTP index     response with a crafted 200 header, which triggers     memory corruption and a buffer overflow. (CVE-2008-0017     / MFSA 2008-54)

  - Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x     before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 do not     properly change the source URI when processing a canvas     element and an HTTP redirect, which allows remote     attackers to bypass the same origin policy and access     arbitrary images that are not directly accessible to the     attacker. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged to enumerate     software on the client by performing redirections     related to moz-icon. (CVE-2008-5012 / MFSA 2008-48)

  - Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18 and SeaMonkey 1.x     before 1.1.13 do not properly check when the Flash     module has been dynamically unloaded properly, which     allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a     crafted SWF file that 'dynamically unloads itself from     an outside JavaScript function,' which triggers an     access of an expired memory address. (CVE-2008-5013 /     MFSA 2008-49)

CVE-2008-5014 / MFSA 2008-50

jslock.cpp in Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.2, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by modifying the window.__proto__.__proto__ object in a way that causes a lock on a non-native object, which triggers an assertion failure related to the OBJ_IS_NATIVE function.

  - Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4 assigns chrome     privileges to a file: URI when it is accessed in the     same tab from a chrome or privileged about: page, which     makes it easier for user-assisted attackers to execute     arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges via     malicious code in a file that has already been saved on     the local system. (CVE-2008-5015 / MFSA 2008-51)

  - The layout engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4,     Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x     before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (crash) via multiple vectors that trigger an     assertion failure or other consequences. (CVE-2008-5016     / MFSA 2008-52)

  - Integer overflow in xpcom/io/nsEscape.cpp in the browser     engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x     before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and     SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown vectors.
    (CVE-2008-5017 / MFSA 2008-52)

  - The JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.x before     3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x     before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)     via vectors related to 'insufficient class checking' in     the Date class. CVE-2008-5019 / MFSA 2008-53: The     session restore feature in Mozilla Firefox 3.x before     3.0.4 and 2.x before 2.0.0.18 allows remote attackers to     violate the same origin policy to conduct cross-site     scripting (XSS) attacks and execute arbitrary JavaScript     with chrome privileges via unknown vectors.
    (CVE-2008-5018 / MFSA 2008-52)

  - nsFrameManager in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x     before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and     SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute     arbitrary code by modifying properties of a file input     element while it is still being initialized, then using     the blur method to access uninitialized memory.
    (CVE-2008-5021 / MFSA 2008-55)

  - The nsXMLHttpRequest::NotifyEventListeners method in     Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18,     Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x     before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to bypass the     same-origin policy and execute arbitrary script via     multiple listeners, which bypass the inner window check.
    (CVE-2008-5022 / MFSA 2008-56)

  - Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18,     and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers     to bypass the protection mechanism for codebase     principals and execute arbitrary script via the
    -moz-binding CSS property in a signed JAR file.
    (CVE-2008-5023 / MFSA 2008-57)

  - Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before     2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey     1.x before 1.1.13 do not properly escape quote     characters used for XML processing, allows remote     attackers to conduct XML injection attacks via the     default namespace in an E4X document. (CVE-2008-5024 /     MFSA 2008-58)

  - The AppendAttributeValue function in the JavaScript     engine in Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18,     Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x     before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (crash) via unknown vectors that trigger     memory corruption, as demonstrated by     e4x/extensions/regress-410192.js. (CVE-2008-5052 / MFSA     2008-52)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201301-01 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla Firefox,       Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, NSS, GNU IceCat, and XULRunner. 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,       bypass restrictions and protection mechanisms, force file downloads,       conduct XML injection attacks, conduct XSS attacks, bypass the Same       Origin Policy, spoof URL&rsquo;s for phishing attacks, trigger a vertical       scroll, spoof the location bar, spoof an SSL indicator, modify the       browser&rsquo;s font, conduct clickjacking attacks, or have other unspecified       impact.
    A local attacker could gain escalated privileges, obtain sensitive       information, or replace an arbitrary downloaded file.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.
