--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2006-488 2006-05-03 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : mozilla Version : 1.7.13 Release : 1.1.fc4 Summary : Web browser and mail reader Description : Mozilla is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and portability. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Updated mozilla packages that fix several security bugs are now available. This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Fedora Security Response Team. Mozilla is an open source Web browser, advanced email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor. Several bugs were found in the way Mozilla processes malformed JavaScript. A malicious web page could modify the content of a different open web page, possibly stealing sensitive information or conducting a cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2006-1731, CVE-2006-1732, CVE-2006-1741) Several bugs were found in the way Mozilla processes certain JavaScript actions. A malicious web page could execute arbitrary JavaScript instructions with the permissions of "chrome", allowing the page to steal sensitive information or install browser malware. (CVE-2006-1727, CVE-2006-1728, CVE-2006-1733, CVE-2006-1734, CVE-2006-1735, CVE-2006-1742) Several bugs were found in the way Mozilla processes malformed web pages. A carefully crafted malicious web page could cause the execution of arbitrary code as the user running Mozilla. (CVE-2006-0748, CVE-2006-0749, CVE-2006-1730, CVE-2006-1737, CVE-2006-1738, CVE-2006-1739, CVE-2006-1790) A bug was found in the way Mozilla displays the secure site icon. If a browser is configured to display the non-default secure site modal warning dialog, it may be possible to trick a user into believing they are viewing a secure site. (CVE-2006-1740) A bug was found in the way Mozilla allows JavaScript mutation events on "input" form elements. A malicious web page could be created in such a way that when a user submits a form, an arbitrary file could be uploaded to the attacker. (CVE-2006-1729) A bug was found in the way Mozilla executes in-line mail forwarding. If a user can be tricked into forwarding a maliciously crafted mail message as in-line content, it is possible for the message to execute JavaScript with the permissions of "chrome". (CVE-2006-0884) Users of Mozilla are advised to upgrade to these updated packages containing Mozilla version 1.7.13 which corrects these issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Wed Apr 26 2006 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> 37:1.7.13-1.1.fc4 - Mozilla 1.7.13 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/u... c0358b0e0d4dcdbfe9c2043e04d231038888df82 SRPMS/mozilla-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.src.rpm 80f2f24681147dd860d0010cf5ff14c52634fcd5 ppc/mozilla-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm c9175f2524734241206e64529fbdb009854c8363 ppc/mozilla-nspr-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 131b55acae6f0ce863cb6fcb3fb7c7c9358edb25 ppc/mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm f7e0dd636f61e3060bbe18b1e6e75ac0510d7081 ppc/mozilla-nss-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 2bae93877c0fda6480359da719392f1375ba2802 ppc/mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 9bd4dd11278f1ca0ff33d16430aa951391f9d7d3 ppc/mozilla-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 40ca7836e9fe12e6246728d572895e40e8035d4c ppc/mozilla-mail-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 945e722390aa4d6d4a29cddb3a596d18394b4b96 ppc/mozilla-chat-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 7391c82ed34e49533c9f8db9880545f8ef2e2d3e ppc/mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 768ca1cd7dbf4693545befa1407bad67d3c7ad02 ppc/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 9d18e3e808f0a6b7103db650c709cf375b2ea4e8 ppc/debug/mozilla-debuginfo-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm 7f3062f7a7fe1ddcc90521044af14f237499fb70 x86_64/mozilla-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm d32d4eaac43f0e22ecb4c6489f967d4a90f0bb9f x86_64/mozilla-nspr-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm f5c42876560e29b92126c82e7955133b1c2d5197 x86_64/mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm 4f18489c7815e129ec86ee3c8856b702c2bc0095 x86_64/mozilla-nss-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm e56ce765b79c07b45d493a06f55d202fe54d5462 x86_64/mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm 4784321445e122ee1c6296f495da2aead8595f0c x86_64/mozilla-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm 607f4f5903c2dc045216f2ed52fec25429277eb3 x86_64/mozilla-mail-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm bb4cf7fe2b18793bf204655656a61689d7abbf64 x86_64/mozilla-chat-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm fc6406e2f2cac36aa71907bfc5a85cdbf980f634 x86_64/mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm 3dcebae2c3d76d79fcaa09612cb5c6fb077935be x86_64/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm 0e3ef6075677fa772828370eacdabf30cbdd96b8 x86_64/debug/mozilla-debuginfo-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.x86_64.rpm 0b114059df506dca4eb3352be42efcfae1fd9cdb i386/mozilla-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm 68d08c417746691a700e7f172278dac57beba5e1 i386/mozilla-nspr-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm 7171a6bac7b4c82e62beaf386e280fe4b4d6d01c i386/mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm 7dd63d9eda97cd43baece066e3b2f2b5cc99f5a9 i386/mozilla-nss-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm 65e4dc34e0b6125aff2faa7607588e1464d9ea96 i386/mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm f2a91b7f01b0ad56e42c664fe00f3cf5d6d47f5a i386/mozilla-devel-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm e8a55805016daa5bc16711c814a3a7eff55c7d4f i386/mozilla-mail-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm c0d3348f60680d4ef6d100dbd14ddad0db49ca96 i386/mozilla-chat-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm ec9112f4a4eea122a6e3854221d73e16a9ffb624 i386/mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm bed640b80b0eda4bd0fb17014caaebae122b378c i386/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm 279062c773d4fcdb336f3d3acc37838d17ffbb88 i386/debug/mozilla-debuginfo-1.7.13-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm This update can be installed with the 'yum' update program.
