Synopsis:	Critical: seamonkey security update
Issue date:	2009-10-27
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-1563 CVE-2009-3274 CVE-2009-3375
                   CVE-2009-3376 CVE-2009-3380

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey creates temporary file names for
downloaded files. If a local attacker knows the name of a file SeaMonkey 
is going to download, they can replace the contents of that file with
arbitrary contents. (CVE-2009-3274)

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the SeaMonkey string to
floating point conversion routines. A web page containing malicious
JavaScript could crash SeaMonkey or, potentially, execute arbitrary code
with the privileges of the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2009-1563)

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handles text selection. A 
malicious website may be able to read highlighted text in a different 
domain (e.g. another website the user is viewing), bypassing the 
same-origin policy. (CVE-2009-3375)

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey displays a right-to-left override
character when downloading a file. In these cases, the name displayed in
the title bar differs from the name displayed in the dialog body. An
attacker could use this flaw to trick a user into downloading a file 
that has a file name or extension that differs from what the user 
expected. (CVE-2009-3376)

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A 
web page containing malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user 
running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2009-3380)

After installing the update, SeaMonkey must be restarted for the changes 
to take effect.
