Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'firefox, firefox-l10n, nss, rootcerts, thunderbird, thunderbird-l10n' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0293 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
A race condition was found in the way NSS verified certain certificates.
A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or,
possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
that application (CVE-2014-1544).

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web
page containing malicious content could cause Firefox or Thunderbird to crash

firefox and thunderbird packages have been updated to version 24.7.0, fixing
these issues.

Affected Software/OS:
'firefox, firefox-l10n, nss, rootcerts, thunderbird, thunderbird-l10n' package(s) on Mageia 3, Mageia 4.
