==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Critical: seamonkey security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2011:1344-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011:1344.html Issue date: 2011-09-28 CVE Names: CVE-2011-2998 CVE-2011-2999 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated seamonkey packages that fix two security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. 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. 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. A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled frame objects with certain names. An attacker could use this flaw to cause a plug-in to grant its content access to another site or the local file system, violating the same-origin policy. (CVE-2011-2999) An integer underflow flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled large JavaScript regular expressions. A web page containing malicious JavaScript could cause SeaMonkey to access already freed memory, causing SeaMonkey to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2011-2998) All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues. 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/): 741904 - CVE-2011-2999 Mozilla: XSS via plugins and shadowed window.location object (MFSA 2011-38) 741924 - CVE-2011-2998 Mozilla: Integer underflow when using JavaScript RegExp (MFSA 2011-37) 6.
