| Detailed Description |
A version of Mozilla Firefox which is older than 10.0.5 has been installed on the host. Mozilla Firefox is an open-source based Web browser, developed by the Mozilla project. Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 10.0.5 are multiple vulnerable to vulnerability.
- An error exists in the ASN.1 decoder when handling zero length items that can lead to application crashes. (CVE-2012-0441)
- Multiple memory corruption errors exist. (CVE-2012-1937, CVE-2012-1939)
- Two heap-based buffer overflows and one heap-based use-after-free error exist and are potentially exploitable. (CVE-2012-1940, CVE-2012-1941, CVE-2012-1947)
- The inline-script blocking feature of the 'Content Security Policy' (CSP) does not properly block inline event handlers. This error allows remote attackers to more easily carry out cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2012-1944)
- A use-after-free error exists related to replacing or inserting a node into a web document. (CVE-2012-1946)
* Note: This check requires an account with Guest or upper privileges which can access the registry of the remote host to scan. Absence of these condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
