Synopsis:	Critical: seamonkey security update
Issue date:	2010-06-22
CVE Names:	CVE-2010-0163 CVE-2010-1197 CVE-2010-1198
 CVE-2010-1199 CVE-2010-1200

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-2010-1200)

A flaw was found in the way browser plug-ins interact. It was possible
for a plug-in to reference the freed memory from a different plug-in,
resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2010-1198)

An integer overflow flaw was 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-2010-1199)

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey processed mail attachments. A
specially-crafted mail message could cause SeaMonkey to crash.
(CVE-2010-0163)

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled the "Content-Disposition:
attachment" HTTP header when the "Content-Type: multipart" HTTP header
was also present. A website that allows arbitrary uploads and relies on
the "Content-Disposition: attachment" HTTP header to prevent content
from being displayed inline, could be used by an attacker to serve
malicious content to users. (CVE-2010-1197)

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