    descriptionMozilla SeaMonkey 2.0 was updated to update 2.0.11 fixing several security issues. MFSA 2010-74: Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. Jesee Ruderman, Andreas Gal, Nils, and Brian Hackett reported memory safety problems that affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5. (CVE-2010-3776) Igor Bukanov reported a memory safety problem that was fixed in Firefox 3.6 only. (CVE-2010-3777) Jesse Ruderman reported a crash which affected Firefox 3.5 only. (CVE-2010-3778) MFSA 2010-75 / CVE-2010-3769: Dirk Heinrich reported that on Windows platforms when document.write() was called with a very long string a buffer overflow was caused in line breaking routines attempting to process the string for display. Such cases triggered an invalid read past the end of an array causing a crash which an attacker could potentially use to run arbitrary code on a victim

    MFSA 2010-74: Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory
    safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other
    Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory
    corruption under certain circumstances, and we presume that with
    enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run
    arbitrary code.
    
    Jesee Ruderman, Andreas Gal, Nils, and Brian Hackett reported memory
    safety problems that affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5.
    (CVE-2010-3776) Igor Bukanov reported a memory safety problem that was
    fixed in Firefox 3.6 only. (CVE-2010-3777) Jesse Ruderman reported a
    crash which affected Firefox 3.5 only. (CVE-2010-3778)
    
    MFSA 2010-75 / CVE-2010-3769: Dirk Heinrich reported that on Windows
    platforms when document.write() was called with a very long string a
    buffer overflow was caused in line breaking routines attempting to
    process the string for display. Such cases triggered an invalid read
    past the end of an array causing a crash which an attacker could
    potentially use to run arbitrary code on a victim's computer.
    
    MFSA 2010-76 / CVE-2010-3771: Security researcher echo reported that a
    web page could open a window with an about:blank location and then
    inject an <isindex> element into that page which upon submission would
    redirect to a chrome: document. The effect of this defect was that the
    original page would wind up with a reference to a chrome-privileged
    object, the opened window, which could be leveraged for privilege
    escalation attacks.
    
    Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 provided proof-of-concept
    code demonstrating how the above vulnerability could be used to run
    arbitrary code with chrome privileges.
    
    MFSA 2010-77 / CVE-2010-3772: Security researcher wushi of team509
    reported that when a XUL tree had an HTML <div> element nested inside
    a <treechildren> element then code attempting to display content in
    the XUL tree would incorrectly treat the <div> element as a parent
    node to tree content underneath it resulting in incorrect indexes
    being calculated for the child content. These incorrect indexes were
    used in subsequent array operations which resulted in writing data
    past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker could use this issue
    to crash a victim's browser and run arbitrary code on their machine.
    
    MFSA 2010-78 / CVE-2010-3768: Mozilla added the OTS font sanitizing
    library to prevent downloadable fonts from exposing vulnerabilities in
    the underlying OS font code. This library mitigates against several
    issues independently reported by Red Hat Security Response Team member
    Marc Schoenefeld and Mozilla security researcher Christoph Diehl.
    
    MFSA 2010-79 / CVE-2010-3775: Security researcher Gregory Fleischer
    reported that when a Java LiveConnect script was loaded via a data:
    URL which redirects via a meta refresh, then the resulting plugin
    object was created with the wrong security principal and thus received
    elevated privileges such as the abilities to read local files, launch
    processes, and create network connections.
    
    MFSA 2010-80 / CVE-2010-3766: Security researcher regenrecht reported
    via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative that a nsDOMAttribute node can
    be modified without informing the iterator object responsible for
    various DOM traversals. This flaw could lead to a inconsistent state
    where the iterator points to an object it believes is part of the DOM
    but actually points to some other object. If such an object had been
    deleted and its memory reclaimed by the system, then the iterator
    could be used to call into attacker-controlled memory.
    
    MFSA 2010-81 / CVE-2010-3767: Security researcher regenrecht reported
    via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative that JavaScript arrays were
    vulnerable to an integer overflow vulnerability. The report
    demonstrated that an array could be constructed containing a very
    large number of items such that when memory was allocated to store the
    array items, the integer value used to calculate the buffer size would
    overflow resulting in too small a buffer being allocated. Subsequent
    use of the array object could then result in data being written past
    the end of the buffer and causing memory corruption.
    
    MFSA 2010-82 / CVE-2010-3773: Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4
    reported that the fix for CVE-2010-0179 could be circumvented
    permitting the execution of arbitrary JavaScript with chrome
    privileges.
    
    MFSA 2010-83 / CVE-2010-3774: Google security researcher Michal
    Zalewski reported that when a window was opened to a site resulting in
    a network or certificate error page, the opening site could access the
    document inside the opened window and inject arbitrary content. An
    attacker could use this bug to spoof the location bar and trick a user
    into thinking they were on a different site than they actually were.
    
    MFSA 2010-84 / CVE-2010-3770: Security researchers Yosuke Hasegawa and
    Masatoshi Kimura reported that the x-mac-arabic, x-mac-farsi and
    x-mac-hebrew character encodings are vulnerable to XSS attacks due to
    some characters being converted to angle brackets when displayed by
    the rendering engine. Sites using these character encodings would thus
    be potentially vulnerable to script injection attacks if their script
    filtering code fails to strip out these specific characters."

Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. Jesee Ruderman, Andreas Gal, Nils, and Brian Hackett reported memory safety problems that affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5.

    descriptionUpdated firefox packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, 5, and 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser. 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 with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3766, CVE-2010-3767, CVE-2010-3772, CVE-2010-3776, CVE-2010-3777) A flaw was found in the way Firefox handled malformed JavaScript. A website with an object containing malicious JavaScript could cause Firefox to execute that JavaScript with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3771) This update adds support for the Sanitiser for OpenType (OTS) library to Firefox. This library helps prevent potential exploits in malformed OpenType fonts by verifying the font file prior to use. (CVE-2010-3768) A flaw was found in the way Firefox loaded Java LiveConnect scripts. Malicious web content could load a Java LiveConnect script in a way that would result in the plug-in object having elevated privileges, allowing it to execute Java code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3775) It was found that the fix for CVE-2010-0179 was incomplete when the Firebug add-on was used. If a user visited a website containing malicious JavaScript while the Firebug add-on was enabled, it could cause Firefox to execute arbitrary JavaScript with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3773) A flaw was found in the way Firefox presented the location bar to users. A malicious website could trick a user into thinking they are visiting the site reported by the location bar, when the page is actually content controlled by an attacker. (CVE-2010-3774) A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the Firefox x-mac-arabic, x-mac-farsi, and x-mac-hebrew character encodings. Certain characters were converted to angle brackets when displayed. If server-side script filtering missed these cases, it could result in Firefox executing JavaScript code with the permissions of a different website. (CVE-2010-3770) For technical details regarding these flaws, refer to the Mozilla security advisories for Firefox 3.6.13. You can find a link to the Mozilla advisories in the References section of this erratum. All Firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Firefox version 3.6.13, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

    descriptionJesse Ruderman, Andreas Gal, Nils, Brian Hackett, and Igor Bukanov discovered several memory issues in the browser engine. An attacker could exploit these to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-3776, CVE-2010-3777, CVE-2010-3778) It was discovered that Firefox did not properly verify the about:blank location elements when it was opened via window.open(). An attacker could exploit this to run arbitrary code with chrome privileges. (CVE-2010-3771) It was discovered that Firefox did not properly handle &lt;div&gt; elements when processing a XUL tree. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could exploit this to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-3772) Marc Schoenefeld and Christoph Diehl discovered several problems when handling downloadable fonts. The new OTS font sanitizing library was added to mitigate these issues. (CVE-2010-3768) Gregory Fleischer discovered that the Java LiveConnect script could be made to run in the wrong security context. An attacker could exploit this to read local files and run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-3775) Several problems were discovered in the JavaScript engine. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could exploit this to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-3766, CVE-2010-3767, CVE-2010-3773) Michal Zalewski discovered that Firefox did not always properly handle displaying pages from network or certificate errors. An attacker could exploit this to spoof the location bar, such as in a phishing attack. (CVE-2010-3774) Yosuke Hasegawa and Masatoshi Kimura discovered that several character encodings would have some characters converted to angle brackets. An attacker could utilize this to perform cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2010-3770).

    descriptionSecurity issues were identified and fixed in firefox : Security researchers Yosuke Hasegawa and Masatoshi Kimura reported that the x-mac-arabic, x-mac-farsi and x-mac-hebrew character encodings are vulnerable to XSS attacks due to some characters being converted to angle brackets when displayed by the rendering engine. Sites using these character encodings would thus be potentially vulnerable to script injection attacks if their script filtering code fails to strip out these specific characters (CVE-2010-3770). Google security researcher Michal Zalewski reported that when a window was opened to a site resulting in a network or certificate error page, the opening site could access the document inside the opened window and inject arbitrary content. An attacker could use this bug to spoof the location bar and trick a user into thinking they were on a different site than they actually were (CVE-2010-3774). Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that the fix for CVE-2010-0179 could be circumvented permitting the execution of arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges (CVE-2010-3773).

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201301-01 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities) Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, NSS, GNU IceCat, and XULRunner. 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&rsquo;s for phishing attacks, trigger a vertical scroll, spoof the location bar, spoof an SSL indicator, modify the browser&rsquo;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.

    descriptionFrom Red Hat Security Advisory 2010:0966 : Updated firefox packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, 5, and 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser. 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 with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3766, CVE-2010-3767, CVE-2010-3772, CVE-2010-3776, CVE-2010-3777) A flaw was found in the way Firefox handled malformed JavaScript. A website with an object containing malicious JavaScript could cause Firefox to execute that JavaScript with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3771) This update adds support for the Sanitiser for OpenType (OTS) library to Firefox. This library helps prevent potential exploits in malformed OpenType fonts by verifying the font file prior to use. (CVE-2010-3768) A flaw was found in the way Firefox loaded Java LiveConnect scripts. Malicious web content could load a Java LiveConnect script in a way that would result in the plug-in object having elevated privileges, allowing it to execute Java code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3775) It was found that the fix for CVE-2010-0179 was incomplete when the Firebug add-on was used. If a user visited a website containing malicious JavaScript while the Firebug add-on was enabled, it could cause Firefox to execute arbitrary JavaScript with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-3773) A flaw was found in the way Firefox presented the location bar to users. A malicious website could trick a user into thinking they are visiting the site reported by the location bar, when the page is actually content controlled by an attacker. (CVE-2010-3774) A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the Firefox x-mac-arabic, x-mac-farsi, and x-mac-hebrew character encodings. Certain characters were converted to angle brackets when displayed. If server-side script filtering missed these cases, it could result in Firefox executing JavaScript code with the permissions of a different website. (CVE-2010-3770) For technical details regarding these flaws, refer to the Mozilla security advisories for Firefox 3.6.13. You can find a link to the Mozilla advisories in the References section of this erratum. All Firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Firefox version 3.6.13, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
