Synopsis:          Important: seamonkey security update
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2011:1266-01
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL:      https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011:1266.html
Issue date:        2011-09-06
====================================================================
1. Summary:

Updated seamonkey packages that fix one security issue are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
important security impact.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64

3. Description:

SeaMonkey is an open source web browser, email and newsgroup client, IRC
chat client, and HTML editor.

The RHSA-2011:1244 SeaMonkey update rendered HTTPS certificates signed by a
certain Certificate Authority (CA) as untrusted, but made an exception for
a select few. This update removes that exception, rendering every HTTPS
certificate signed by that CA as untrusted. (BZ#735483)

All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct
this issue. After installing the update, SeaMonkey must be restarted for
the changes to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
