Fedora 9 Update: galeon-2.0.7-8.fc9 2009-3099
Summary
Galeon is a web browser built around Gecko (Mozilla's rendering
engine) and Necko (Mozilla's networking engine). It's a GNOME web
browser, designed to take advantage of as many GNOME technologies as
makes sense. Galeon was written to do just one thing - browse the web.
Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser. XULRunner provides the XUL
Runtime environment for Mozilla Firefox. A memory corruption flaw was
discovered in the way Firefox handles XML files containing an XSLT transform. A
remote attacker could use this flaw to crash Firefox or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2009-1169) A flaw was
discovered in the way Firefox handles certain XUL garbage collection events. A
remote attacker could use this flaw to crash Firefox or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2009-1044) This update also
provides depending packages rebuilt against new Firefox version. Miro updates
to upstream 2.0.3. Provides new features and fixes various bugs in 1.2.x series
