Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.2.1.2014.10
Category:General
Title:Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2014-10) - Linux
Summary:This host is missing a security update for Mozilla Firefox.
Description:Summary:
This host is missing a security update for Mozilla Firefox.

Vulnerability Insight:
Firefox default start page UI content invocable by script
Yazan Tommalieh discovered a flaw that once users have
viewed the default Firefox start page (about:home), subsequent pages they
navigate to in that same tab could use script to activate the buttons that were
on the about:home page. Most of these simply open Firefox dialogs such as
Settings or History, which might alarm users. In some cases a malicious page
could trigger session restore and cause data loss if the current tabs are
replaced by a previously stored set.

Affected Software/OS:
Firefox version(s) below 27.

Solution:
The vendor has released an update. Please see the reference(s) for more information.

CVSS Score:
4.3

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
