Several problems have been discovered in Mozilla. Since the usual praxis of
backporting apparently does not work for this package, this update is
basically version 1.7.10 with the version number rolled back, and hence still
named 1.7.8.  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems:

CVE-2004-0718, CVE-2005-1937

    A vulnerability has been discovered in Mozilla that allows remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary Javascript from one page into the
    frameset of another site.

CVE-2005-2260

    The browser user interface does not properly distinguish between
    user-generated events and untrusted synthetic events, which makes
    it easier for remote attackers to perform dangerous actions that
    normally could only be performed manually by the user.

CVE-2005-2261

    XML scripts ran even when Javascript disabled.

CVE-2005-2263

    It is possible for a remote attacker to execute a callback
    function in the context of another domain (i.e. frame).

CVE-2005-2265

    Missing input sanitising of InstallVersion.compareTo() can cause
    the application to crash.

CVE-2005-2266

    Remote attackers could steal sensitive information such as cookies
    and passwords from web sites by accessing data in alien frames.

CVE-2005-2268

    It is possible for a Javascript dialog box to spoof a dialog box
    from a trusted site and facilitates phishing attacks.

CVE-2005-2269

    Remote attackers could modify certain tag properties of DOM nodes
    that could lead to the execution of arbitrary script or code.

CVE-2005-2270

    The Mozilla browser family does not properly clone base objects,
    which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Note that this is the same update contained in DSA-810-1 for Debian stable.
