Category:General
Title:Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2015-03) - Linux
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:
sendBeacon requests lack an Origin header
Security researcher Muneaki Nishimura reported that
navigator.sendBeacon() does not follow the cross-origin resource
sharing (CORS) specification. This results in the request from
sendBeacon() lacking an origin header in violation of
the W3C Beacon specification and not
being treated as a CORS request. This allows for a potential Cross-site request
forgery (XSRF) attack from malicious websites.

Affected Software/OS:
Firefox version(s) below 35.

Solution:
The vendor has released an update. Please see the reference(s) for more information.

CVSS Score:
