The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - A mechanism to spoof the addressbar through the user interaction on the addressbar and the onblur event.
    The event could be used by script to affect text display to make the loaded site appear to be different     from the one actually loaded within the addressbar. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 52.1, Firefox     ESR < 52.1, and Firefox < 53. (CVE-2017-5451)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Please reference CVE/URL list for details

The version of Firefox ESR installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 52.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2017-12 advisory.

  - Fixed potential buffer overflows in generated Firefox code due to     [CVE-2016-6354](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-6354) issue in Flex.
    (CVE-2017-5469)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in SMIL animation functions occurs when pointers to animation elements in     an array are dropped from the animation controller while still in use. This results in a potentially     exploitable crash. (CVE-2017-5433)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability occurs during transaction processing in the editor during design mode     interactions. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2017-5435)

  - An out-of-bounds write in the Graphite 2 library triggered with a maliciously crafted Graphite font. This     results in a potentially exploitable crash. This issue was fixed in the Graphite 2 library as well as     Mozilla products. (CVE-2017-5436)

  - An out-of-bounds write during Base64 decoding operation in the Network Security Services (NSS) library due     to insufficient memory being allocated to the buffer. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. The     NSS library has been updated to fix this issue to address this issue and Firefox ESR 52.1 has been updated     with NSS version 3.28.4. (CVE-2017-5461)
