Title:	Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2015-13) - 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: Appended period to hostnames can bypass HPKP and HSTS protections Security researcher Muneaki Nishimura reported that when certificate pinning is set to 'strict' mode, a period ('.') appended to a hostname in the address of a site allowed the bypass key pinning (HPKP) and HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS). Sites with a period appended were treated as having a different origin than sites without the period. If an attacker had a security certificate for a domain with the added period, this would allow for a Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack on users. Affected Software/OS: Firefox version(s) below 36. Solution: The vendor has released an update. Please see the reference(s) for more information. CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
