| Detailed Description |
A version of Mozilla Firefox which is older than 3.5.3 has been installed on the host. Mozilla is an open-source based Web browser, developed by the Mozilla project. Mozilla Firefox versions 3.5.x prior to 3.5.3 are vulnerable to multiple vulnerabilities.
- Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities could potentially allow arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2009-47)
- The columns of a XUL tree element can manipulated in a way that leads to a dangling pointer. A remote attacker could exploit this to crash the browser, or execute arbitrary code. (MFSA 2009-49)
- A URL containing certain Unicode characters with tall tall-line height is displayed incorrectly in the location bar. A remote attacker could use this to prevent a user from seeing the full URL of a malicious web site. (MFSA 2009-50)
- A remote attacker can leverage 'BrowserFeedWriter' to execute JavaScript code with Chrome privileges. (MFSA 2009-51)
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of this condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
