Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.59011 |
Category: | Slackware Local Security Checks |
Title: | Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2007-200-01) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'firefox' package(s) announced via the SSA:2007-200-01 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'firefox' package(s) announced via the SSA:2007-200-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New mozilla-firefox packages are available for Slackware 11.0 and 12.0 to fix security issues. Note that Firefox 1.5.x has reached its EOL (end of life) and is no longer being updated by mozilla.com. Users of Firefox 1.5.x are encouraged to upgrade to Firefox 2.x. Since we use the official Firefox binaries, these packages should work equally well on earlier Slackware systems. More details about the security issues may be found at this link: [link moved to references] Here are the details from the Slackware 12.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.5-i686-1.tgz: Upgraded to firefox-2.0.0.5. This upgrade fixes a couple of minor security bugs. Nobody here is launching Firefox from Internet Explorer, right? :-) For more information, see: [link moved to references] (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'firefox' package(s) on Slackware 11.0, Slackware 12.0. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
