    This update has been rated as having Important security impact by the
    Red Hat Security Response Team.
    
    Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser.
    
    Vladimir V. Perepelitsa discovered a bug in the way Firefox handles
    anonymous functions during regular expression string replacement. It
    is possible for a malicious web page to capture a random block of
    browser memory. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
    (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0989 to this issue.
    
    Omar Khan discovered a bug in the way Firefox processes the
    PLUGINSPAGE tag. It is possible for a malicious web page to trick a
    user into pressing the 'manual install' button for an unknown plugin
    leading to arbitrary JavaScript code execution. The Common
    Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
    name CVE-2005-0752 to this issue.
    
    Doron Rosenberg discovered a bug in the way Firefox displays pop-up
    windows. If a user choses to open a pop-up window whose URL is
    malicious JavaScript, the script will be executed with elevated
    privileges. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
    (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-1153 to this issue.
    
    A bug was found in the way Firefox handles the JavaScript global scope
    for a window. It is possible for a malicious web page to define a
    global variable known to be used by a different site, allowing
    malicious code to be executed in the context of the site. The Common
    Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
    name CVE-2005-1154 to this issue.
    
    Michael Krax discovered a bug in the way Firefox handles favicon
    links. A malicious web page can programatically define a favicon link
    tag as JavaScript, executing arbitrary JavaScript with elevated
    privileges. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
    (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-1155 to this issue.
    
    Michael Krax discovered a bug in the way Firefox installed search
    plugins. If a user chooses to install a search plugin from a malicious
    site, the new plugin could silently overwrite an existing plugin. This
    could allow the malicious plugin to execute arbitrary code and steal
    sensitive information. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
    project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CVE-2005-1156 and
    CVE-2005-1157 to these issues.
    
    Kohei Yoshino discovered a bug in the way Firefox opens links in its
    sidebar. A malicious web page could construct a link in such a way
    that, when clicked on, could execute arbitrary JavaScript with
    elevated privileges. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
    (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-1158 to this issue.
    
    A bug was found in the way Firefox validated several XPInstall related
    JavaScript objects. A malicious web page could pass other objects to
    the XPInstall objects, resulting in the JavaScript interpreter jumping
    to arbitrary locations in memory. The Common Vulnerabilities and
    Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-1159
    to this issue.
    
    A bug was found in the way the Firefox privileged UI code handled DOM
    nodes from the content window. A malicious web page could install
    malicious JavaScript code or steal data requiring a user to do
    commonplace actions such as clicking a link or opening the context
    menu. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
    has assigned the name CVE-2005-1160 to this issue.
    
    Users of Firefox are advised to upgrade to this updated package which
    contains Firefox version 1.0.3 and is not vulnerable to these issues."

    descriptionUpdated thunderbird package that fixes various bugs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client. A bug was found in the way Thunderbird handled anonymous functions during regular expression string replacement. It is possible for a malicious HTML mail to capture a random block of client memory. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned this bug the name CVE-2005-0989. A bug was found in the way Thunderbird validated several XPInstall related JavaScript objects. A malicious HTML mail could pass other objects to the XPInstall objects, resulting in the JavaScript interpreter jumping to arbitrary locations in memory. (CVE-2005-1159) A bug was found in the way the Thunderbird privileged UI code handled DOM nodes from the content window. An HTML message could install malicious JavaScript code or steal data when a user performs commonplace actions such as clicking a link or opening the context menu. (CVE-2005-1160) A bug was found in the way Thunderbird executed JavaScript code. JavaScript executed from HTML mail should run with a restricted access level, preventing dangerous actions. It is possible that a malicious HTML mail could execute JavaScript code with elevated privileges, allowing access to protected data and functions. (CVE-2005-1532) A bug was found in the way Thunderbird executed JavaScript in XBL controls. It is possible for a malicious HTML mail to leverage this vulnerability to execute other JavaScript based attacks even when JavaScript is disabled. (CVE-2005-2261) A bug was found in the way Thunderbird handled certain JavaScript functions. It is possible for a malicious HTML mail to crash the client by executing malformed JavaScript code. (CVE-2005-2265) A bug was found in the way Thunderbird handled child frames. It is possible for a malicious framed HTML mail to steal sensitive information from its parent frame. (CVE-2005-2266) A bug was found in the way Thunderbird handled DOM node names. It is possible for a malicious HTML mail to overwrite a DOM node name, allowing certain privileged chrome actions to execute the malicious JavaScript. (CVE-2005-2269) A bug was found in the way Thunderbird cloned base objects. It is possible for HTML content to navigate up the prototype chain to gain access to privileged chrome objects. (CVE-2005-2270) Users of Thunderbird are advised to upgrade to this updated package that contains Thunderbird version 1.0.6 and is not vulnerable to these issues.

It is possible for a malicious web page to capture a random block of browser memory. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0989 to this issue. Doron Rosenberg discovered a bug in the way Mozilla displays pop-up windows. If a user choses to open a pop-up window whose URL is malicious JavaScript, the script will be executed with elevated privileges. (CVE-2005-1153) A bug was found in the way Mozilla handles the JavaScript global scope for a window. It is possible for a malicious web page to define a global variable known to be used by a different site, allowing malicious code to be executed in the context of the site. (CVE-2005-1154) Michael Krax discovered a bug in the way Mozilla handles favicon links. A malicious web page can programatically define a favicon link tag as JavaScript, executing arbitrary JavaScript with elevated privileges. (CVE-2005-1155) Michael Krax discovered a bug in the way Mozilla installed search plugins. If a user chooses to install a search plugin from a malicious site, the new plugin could silently overwrite an existing plugin. This could allow the malicious plugin to execute arbitrary code and stealm sensitive information. (CVE-2005-1156 CVE-2005-1157) A bug was found in the way Mozilla validated several XPInstall related JavaScript objects.
