The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has nss-softokn packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

  • When encrypting with a block cipher, if a call to NSC_EncryptUpdate was made with data smaller than the block size, a small out of bounds write could occur.
    This could have caused heap corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 68.3, Firefox ESR < 68.3, and Firefox < 71. (CVE-2019-11745)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
