COMPLETE Summary
Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18 and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 do not properly check when the Flash module has been dynamically unloaded properly, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SWF file that "dynamically unloads itself from an outside JavaScript function," which triggers an access of an expired memory address.

NASL family SuSE Local Security Checks NASL id SUSE_MOZILLAFIREFOX-5826.NASL description This update brings the Mozilla Firefox browser to version 2.0.0.18. It fixes following security issues : - The http-index-format MIME type parser (nsDirIndexParser) in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 does not check for an allocation failure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an HTTP index response with a crafted 200 header, which triggers memory corruption and a buffer overflow. (CVE-2008-0017 / MFSA 2008-54) - Mozilla Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 do not properly change the source URI when processing a canvas element and an HTTP redirect, which allows remote attackers to bypass the same origin policy and access arbitrary images that are not directly accessible to the attacker. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged to enumerate software on the client by performing redirections related to moz-icon.

Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details. Impact : A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web page or email, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able to perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks, obtain sensitive information, bypass restrictions and protection mechanisms, force file downloads, conduct XML injection attacks, conduct XSS attacks, bypass the Same Origin Policy, spoof URL’s for phishing attacks, trigger a vertical scroll, spoof the location bar, spoof an SSL indicator, modify the browser’s font, conduct clickjacking attacks, or have other unspecified impact. A local attacker could gain escalated privileges, obtain sensitive information, or replace an arbitrary downloaded file. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 63402 published 2013-01-08 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2020 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/63402 title GLSA-201301-01 : Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities (BEAST) NASL family Debian Local Security Checks NASL id DEBIAN_DSA-1669.NASL description Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xulrunner, a runtime environment for XUL applications.

This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. SeaMonkey is an open source Web browser, email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor. Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running SeaMonkey.

A web site containing specially crafted content could potentially trick a SeaMonkey user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-5012, CVE-2008-5022, CVE-2008-5023, CVE-2008-5024) All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 36485 published 2009-04-23 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2009-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/36485 title CentOS 3 / 4 : seamonkey (CESA-2008:0977) NASL family Ubuntu Local Security Checks NASL id UBUNTU_USN-667-1.NASL description Liu Die Yu discovered an information disclosure vulnerability in Firefox when using saved .url shortcut files.
