Title:	Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2015-117) - 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: Information disclosure through NTLM authentication Security researcher Tim Brown reported that Firefox discloses the hostname and possibly the Windows domain through NTLM-based HTTP authentication when sending type 3 messages as part of the authentication exchange. This is because the Workstation field is populated with the hostname of the system making the request. An attacker can craft a malicious page to send a silent NTLM request that will disclose the information without visibility in the client, leading to information disclosure. This is mitigated because NTLM v1 is disabled by default configurations. Affected Software/OS: Firefox version(s) below 42. Solution: The vendor has released an update. Please see the reference(s) for more information. CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
