-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-6196 2008-07-08 23:58:26 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : seamonkey Product : Fedora 8 Version : 1.1.10 Release : 1.fc8 URL : http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/ Summary : Web browser, e-mail, news, IRC client, HTML editor Description : SeaMonkey is an all-in-one Internet application suite. It includes a browser, mail/news client, IRC client, JavaScript debugger, and a tool to inspect the DOM for web pages. It is derived from the application formerly known as Mozilla Application Suite. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Updated seamonkey packages that fix several security issues are now available for Fedora 8. SeaMonkey is an all-in-one Internet application suite. It includes a browser, mail/news client, IRC client, JavaScript debugger, and a tool to inspect the DOM for web pages. It is derived from the application formerly known as Mozilla Application Suite. 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 Seamonkey to upstream version 1.1.10 to address these flaws: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known- vulnerabilities.html#seamonkey1.1.10 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Jul 8 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 1.1.10-1 - Update to 1.1.10 - Use bullet characters to match GTK+ * Thu Apr 17 2008 Kai Engert <kengert@redhat.com> - 1.1.9-2 - add several upstream patches, not yet released: 425576 (crash), 323508, 378132, 390295, 421622 * Fri Mar 28 2008 Kai Engert <kengert@redhat.com> - 1.1.9-1 - SeaMonkey 1.1.9 * Fri Feb 8 2008 Kai Engert <kengert@redhat.com> - 1.1.8-1 - SeaMonkey 1.1.8 * Sun Dec 2 2007 Kai Engert <kengert@redhat.com> - 1.1.7-1 - SeaMonkey 1.1.7 * Mon Nov 5 2007 Kai Engert <kengert@redhat.com> - 1.1.6-1 - SeaMonkey 1.1.6 * Fri Oct 19 2007 Kai Engert <kengert@redhat.com> - 1.1.5-2 - SeaMonkey 1.1.5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #452602 - CVE-2008-2803 Firefox javascript arbitrary code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452602 [ 2 ] Bug #452710 - CVE-2008-2808 Firefox file location escaping flaw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452710 [ 3 ] Bug #452604 - CVE-2008-2805 Firefox arbitrary file disclosure https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452604 [ 4 ] Bug #452712 - CVE-2008-2810 Firefox arbitrary file disclosure https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452712 [ 5 ] Bug #452597 - CVE-2008-2798 Firefox malformed web content flaws https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452597 [ 6 ] Bug #452711 - CVE-2008-2809 Firefox self signed certificate flaw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452711 [ 7 ] Bug #453007 - CVE-2008-2811 Firefox block reflow flaw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453007 [ 8 ] Bug #452605 - CVE-2008-2801 Firefox arbitrary signed JAR code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452605 [ 9 ] Bug #452599 - CVE-2008-2800 Firefox XSS attacks https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452599 [ 10 ] Bug #452709 - CVE-2008-2807 Firefox .properties memory leak https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452709 [ 11 ] Bug #452600 - CVE-2008-2802 Firefox arbitrary JavaScript code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452600 [ 12 ] Bug #452598 - CVE-2008-2799 Firefox javascript arbitrary code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452598 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
