Synopsis:    Critical: seamonkey security update
Issue Date:  2012-02-16
CVE Numbers: CVE-2011-3026


SeaMonkey is an open source web browser, e-mail and newsgroup client, IRC
chat client, and HTML editor.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) images. A web page containing a malicious
PNG image could cause SeaMonkey to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2011-3026)

All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct
this issue. After installing the update, SeaMonkey must be restarted for
the changes to take effect.
