Summary:	This host is missing a security update for Mozilla Firefox.
Description:	Summary: This host is missing a security update for Mozilla Firefox. Vulnerability Insight: Privilege escalation through Mozilla Maintenance Service Security researcher Frederic Hoguin discovered that the Mozilla Maintenance Service on Windows was vulnerable to a buffer overflow. This system is used to update software without invoking the User Account Control (UAC) prompt. The Mozilla Maintenance Service is configured to allow unprivileged users to start it with arbitrary arguments. By manipulating the data passed in these arguments, an attacker can execute arbitrary code with the system privileges used by the service. This issue requires local file system access to be exploitable. Affected Software/OS: Firefox version(s) below 20. Solution: The vendor has released an update. Please see the reference(s) for more information. CVSS Score: 7.2 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
