Title:Mozilla Firefox Security Advisory (MFSA2015-79) - 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:
Miscellaneous memory safety hazards (rv:40.0 / rv:38.2)
Mozilla developers and community identified and fixed several memory safety
bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products.
Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain
circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these
could be exploited to run arbitrary code.

Affected Software/OS:
Firefox version(s) below 40.

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

CVSS Score:
10.0
