Fedora alert FEDORA-2008-6127 (liferea)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-6127 2008-07-06 04:44:59 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : liferea Product : Fedora 8 Version : 1.4.15 Release : 2.fc8 URL : http://liferea.sourceforge.net/ Summary : An RSS/RDF feed reader Description : Liferea (Linux Feed Reader) is an RSS/RDF feed reader. It's intended to be a clone of the Windows-only FeedReader. It can be used to maintain a list of subscribed feeds, browse through their items, and show their contents. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Updated firefox packages that fix several security issues are now available for Fedora 8. This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Fedora Security Response Team. Multiple flaws were found in the processing of malformed JavaScript content. A web page containing such malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-2801, CVE-2008-2802, CVE-2008-2803) Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-2798, CVE-2008-2799, CVE-2008-2811) Several flaws were found in the way malformed web content was displayed. A web page containing specially-crafted content could potentially trick a Firefox user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-2800) Two local file disclosure flaws were found in Firefox. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to reveal the contents of a local file to a remote attacker. (CVE-2008-2805, CVE-2008-2810) A flaw was found in the way a malformed .properties file was processed by Firefox. A malicious extension could read uninitialized memory, possibly leaking sensitive data to the extension. (CVE-2008-2807) A flaw was found in the way Firefox escaped a listing of local file names. If a user could be tricked into listing a local directory containing malicious file names, arbitrary JavaScript could be run with the permissions of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-2808) A flaw was found in the way Firefox displayed information about self-signed certificates. It was possible for a self-signed certificate to contain multiple alternate name entries, which were not all displayed to the user, allowing them to mistakenly extend trust to an unknown site. (CVE-2008-2809) Updated packages update Mozilla Firefox to upstream version 2.0.0.15 to address these flaws: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known- vulnerabilities.html#firefox2.0.0.15 This update also contains blam, chmsee, devhelp, epiphany, epiphany-extensions, galeon, gnome-python2-extras, gnome-web- photo, gtkmozembedmm, kazehakase, liferea, Miro, openvrml, ruby-gnome2 and yelp packages rebuilt against new Firefox / Gecko libraries. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jul 2 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 1.4.15-2 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Thu May 15 2008 Marc Wiriadisastra <marc@mwiriadi.id.au> - 1.4.15-1 - New version rebuild for F-8 and F-7 * Mon Apr 7 2008 Alex Lancaster <alexlan[AT]fedoraproject org> - 1.4.13-2 - Rebuild for N-E-V-R issues. * Mon Mar 17 2008 Marc Wiriadisastra <marc@mwiriadi.id.au> - 1.4.13-1 - Updated to latest stable version * Sat Feb 23 2008 Marc Wiriadisastra <marc@mwiriadi.id.au> - 1.4.12-2 - Fixed fedora feed for fedora weekly news * Wed Feb 20 2008 Marc Wiriadisastra <marc@mwiriadi.id.au> - 1.4.12-1 - new version - builds with gcc4.3 - added firefox-devel and xulrunner-devel for different fedora's * Fri Feb 8 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 1.4.11-2 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Thu Jan 17 2008 Brian Pepple <bpepple@fedoraproject.org> - 1.4.11-1 - Update to 1.4.11. release fixes news bin crasher.
