Fedora alert FEDORA-2008-6127 (openvrml)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-6127 2008-07-06 04:44:59 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : openvrml Product : Fedora 8 Version : 0.17.6 Release : 3.fc8 URL : http://openvrml.org Summary : VRML/X3D runtime library Description : OpenVRML is a VRML/X3D support library, including a runtime and facilities for reading and displaying VRML and X3D models. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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> - 0.17.6-3 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Sun Jun 22 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.6-2 - Make symbols for libglade callbacks in openvrml-player visible. * Fri Jun 20 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.6-1 - Updated to 0.17.6. - Build with -fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden * Wed Apr 16 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 0.17.5-5 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Tue Mar 25 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 0.17.5-4 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Mon Mar 17 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.5-3 - Patch for crash in openvrml-xembed (bug 437611). * Fri Feb 8 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 0.17.5-2 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Tue Feb 5 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.5-1 - Updated to 0.17.5. - Added --enable-gecko-rpath. * Sat Jan 26 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.4-1 - Updated to 0.17.4. * Thu Jan 17 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.3-1 - Updated to 0.17.3. * Wed Jan 9 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.2-1 - Updated to 0.17.2. * Sun Jan 6 2008 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.1-1 - Updated to 0.17.1. * Wed Dec 19 2007 Braden McDaniel <braden@endoframe.com> - 0.17.0-2 - Removed %check.
