The remote Scientific Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SLSA-2021:0656-1 advisory.

  • Mozilla: Content Security Policy violation report could have contained the destination of a redirect (CVE-2021-23968, CVE-2021-23969)

  • Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 86 and Firefox ESR 78.8 (CVE-2021-23978)

  • Mozilla: MediaError message property could have leaked information about cross-origin resources (CVE-2021-23973)

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