The remote Fedora 36 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-8bf22a684b advisory.
If a Thunderbird user replied to a crafted HTML email containing a <code>meta</code> tag, with the <code>meta</code> tag having the <code>http-equiv=refresh</code> attribute, and the content attribute specifying an URL, then Thunderbird started a network request to that URL, regardless of the configuration to block remote content. In combination with certain other HTML elements and attributes in the email, it was possible to execute JavaScript code included in the message in the context of the message compose document. The JavaScript code was able to perform actions including, but probably not limited to, read and modify the contents of the message compose document, including the quoted original message, which could potentially contain the decrypted plaintext of encrypted data in the crafted email. The contents could then be transmitted to the network, either to the URL specified in the META refresh tag, or to a different URL, as the JavaScript code could modify the URL specified in the document. This bug doesn’t affect users who have changed the default Message Body display setting to ‘simple html’ or ‘plain text’. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.2.1 and Thunderbird < 91.13.1. (CVE-2022-3033)
When receiving an HTML email that contained an <code>iframe</code> element, which used a <code>srcdoc</code> attribute to define the inner HTML document, remote objects specified in the nested document, for example images or videos, were not blocked. Rather, the network was accessed, the objects were loaded and displayed. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.2.1 and Thunderbird < 91.13.1.
(CVE-2022-3032)
When receiving an HTML email that specified to load an <code>iframe</code> element from a remote location, a request to the remote document was sent. However, Thunderbird didn’t display the document. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.2.1 and Thunderbird < 91.13.1. (CVE-2022-3034)
matrix-js-sdk is a Matrix messaging protocol Client-Server SDK for JavaScript. In versions prior to 19.4.0 events sent with special strings in key places can temporarily disrupt or impede the matrix-js-sdk from functioning properly, potentially impacting the consumer’s ability to process data safely. Note that the matrix-js-sdk can appear to be operating normally but be excluding or corrupting runtime data presented to the consumer. This issue has been fixed in matrix-js-sdk 19.4.0 and users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may mitigate this issue by redacting applicable events, waiting for the sync processor to store data, and restarting the client. Alternatively, redacting the applicable events and clearing all storage will often fix most perceived issues. In some cases, no workarounds are possible. (CVE-2022-36059)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
