The version of Firefox installed on the remote host is earlier than 3.0.10. Such versions have multiple vulnerabilities :
An error in function โ@nsTextFrame::ClearTextRun()โ could corrupt the memory. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow arbitrary code execution on the remote system. Note this reportedly only affects 3.0.9. (MFSA 2009-23)
The browser processes a 3xx HTTP CONNECT response before a successful SSL handshake, which could allow a man-in- the-middle attacker to execute arbitrary web script in the context of a HTTPS server. (CVE-2009-2061)
