<br><dt>More information:</dt>
<dd>We experienced that the update for Mozilla Firefox from DTSA-8-1&nbsp;<br>
unfortunately was a regression in several cases.  Since the usual&nbsp;<br>
praxis of backporting apparently does not work, this update is&nbsp;<br>
basically version 1.0.6 with the version number rolled back, and hence&nbsp;<br>
still named 1.0.4-*.  For completeness below is the original advisory&nbsp;<br>
text:&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Several problems were discovered in Mozilla Firefox:&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2004-0718 CVE-2005-1937&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
A vulnerability has been discovered in Mozilla Firefox that allows remote&nbsp;<br>
attackers to inject arbitrary Javascript from one page into the frameset of&nbsp;<br>
another site.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2260&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
The browser user interface does not properly distinguish between&nbsp;<br>
user-generated events and untrusted synthetic events, which makes it easier&nbsp;<br>
for remote attackers to perform dangerous actions that normally could only be&nbsp;<br>
performed manually by the user.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2261&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
XML scripts ran even when Javascript disabled.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2262&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
The user can be tricked to executing arbitrary JavaScript code by using a&nbsp;<br>
JavaScript URL as wallpaper.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2263&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
It is possible for a remote attacker to execute a callback function in the&nbsp;<br>
context of another domain (i.e. frame).&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2264&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
By opening a malicious link in the sidebar it is possible for remote&nbsp;<br>
attackers to steal sensitive information.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2265&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Missing input sanitising of InstallVersion.compareTo() can cause the&nbsp;<br>
application to crash.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2266&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Remote attackers could steal sensitive information such as cookies and&nbsp;<br>
passwords from web sites by accessing data in alien frames.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2267&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
By using standalone applications such as Flash and QuickTime to open a&nbsp;<br>
javascript: URL, it is possible for a remote attacker to steal sensitive&nbsp;<br>
information and possibly execute arbitrary code.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2268&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
It is possible for a Javascript dialog box to spoof a dialog box from a&nbsp;<br>
trusted site and facilitates phishing attacks.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2269&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Remote attackers could modify certain tag properties of DOM nodes that could&nbsp;<br>
lead to the execution of arbitrary script or code.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
CVE-2005-2270&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
The Mozilla browser family does not properly clone base objects, which allows&nbsp;<br>
remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Note that this is the same set of security fixes put into stable in&nbsp;<br>
DSA-775 and DSA-779, and updated in DSA-779-2.&nbsp;<br>
</dd>
<br><dt>For the testing distribution (etch) this is fixed in version 1.0.4-2sarge3</dt>
<dt>For the unstable distribution (sid) this is fixed in version 1.0.6-3</dt>
<br><dt>This upgrade is recommended if you use mozilla-firefox.<dt>
<br><dt>If you have the secure testing lines in your sources.list, you can update by running this command as root:</dt>

<dd>apt-get update && apt-get install mozilla-firefox</dd>
<br>

<dt>The Debian testing security team does not track security issues for then stable (sarge) and oldstable (woody) distributions. If stable is vulnerable, the Debian security team will make an announcement once a fix is ready.</dt>
