NASL family MacOS X Local Security Checks NASL id MACOSX_FIREFOX_31.NASL description The version of Firefox installed on the remote host is a version prior to 31.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities : - When a pair of NSSCertificate structures are added to a trust domain and then one of them is removed during use, a use-after-free error occurs which may cause the application to crash. This crash is potentially exploitable. (CVE-2014-1544) - There are multiple memory safety hazards within the browser engine. These hazards may lead to memory corruption vulnerabilities, which may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-1547, CVE-2014-1548) - A buffer overflow exists when interacting with the Web Audio buffer during playback due to an error with the allocation of memory for the buffer. This may lead to a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2014-1549) - A use-after-free exists in Web Audio due to the way control messages are handled. This may lead to a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2014-1550) - There is an issue with the IFRAME sandbox same-origin access policy which allows sandboxed content to access other content from the same origin without approval. This may lead to a same-origin-bypass vulnerability. (CVE-2014-1552) - Triggering the FireOnStateChange event has the potential to crash the application. This may lead to a use-after-free and an exploitable crash. (CVE-2014-1555) - When using the Cesium JavaScript library to generate WebGL content, the application may crash. This crash is potentially exploitable. (CVE-2014-1556) - There is a flaw in the Skia library when scaling images of high quality. If the image data is discarded while being processed, the library may crash. This crash is potentially exploitable. (CVE-2014-1557) - There are multiple issues with using invalid characters in various certificates. These invalid characters may cause certificates to be parsed incorrectly which may lead to the inability to use valid SSL certificates. (CVE-2014-1558, CVE-2014-1559, CVE-2014-1560) - It may be possible to spoof drag and drop events in web content. This may allow limited ability to interact with the UI.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support the cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications. Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) provides platform independence for non-GUI operating system facilities. A race condition was found in the way NSS verified certain certificates. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. (CVE-2014-1544) A flaw was found in the way TLS False Start was implemented in NSS. An attacker could use this flaw to potentially return unencrypted information from the server. (CVE-2013-1740) A race condition was found in the way NSS implemented session ticket handling as specified by RFC 5077. An attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or, in rare cases, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. (CVE-2014-1490) It was found that NSS accepted weak Diffie-Hellman Key exchange (DHKE) parameters. This could possibly lead to weak encryption being used in communication between the client and the server. (CVE-2014-1491) An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in NSPR. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash an application using NSPR or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. This NSPR flaw was not exposed to web content in any shipped version of Firefox. (CVE-2014-1545) It was found that the implementation of Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications (IDNA) hostname matching in NSS did not follow the RFC 6125 recommendations. This could lead to certain invalid certificates with international characters to be accepted as valid. (CVE-2014-1492) Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting the CVE-2014-1544, CVE-2014-1490, CVE-2014-1491, and CVE-2014-1545 issues. Upstream acknowledges Tyson Smith and Jesse Schwartzentruber as the original reporters of CVE-2014-1544, Brian Smith as the original reporter of CVE-2014-1490, Antoine Delignat-Lavaud and Karthikeyan Bhargavan as the original reporters of CVE-2014-1491, and Abhishek Arya as the original reporter of CVE-2014-1545. In addition, the nss package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.16.1, and the nspr package has been upgraded to upstream version 4.10.6. These updated packages provide a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous versions. (BZ#1112136, BZ#1112135) Users of NSS and NSPR are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues and add these enhancements. After installing this update, applications using NSS or NSPR must be restarted for this update to take effect. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 76698 published 2014-07-23 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2014-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/76698 title RHEL 6 : nss and nspr (RHSA-2014:0917) NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2014-0979.NASL description An updated rhev-hypervisor6 package that fixes one security issue is now available.
