Subject: Security ERRATA Critical: firefox on SL5.x, SL6.x i386/x86_64
MIME-Version: 1.0

Synopsis: Critical: firefox security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2013:0981-1
Issue Date: 2013-06-25
CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-1682
 CVE-2013-1684
 CVE-2013-1685
 CVE-2013-1686
 CVE-2013-1687
 CVE-2013-1690
 CVE-2013-1692
 CVE-2013-1693
 CVE-2013-1694
 CVE-2013-1697
--

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web
page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
running Firefox. (CVE-2013-1682, CVE-2013-1684, CVE-2013-1685,
CVE-2013-1686, CVE-2013-1687, CVE-2013-1690)

It was found that Firefox allowed data to be sent in the body of
XMLHttpRequest (XHR) HEAD requests. In some cases this could allow
attackers to conduct Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks.
(CVE-2013-1692)

Timing differences in the way Firefox processed SVG image files could
allow an attacker to read data across domains, potentially leading to
information disclosure. (CVE-2013-1693)

Two flaws were found in the way Firefox implemented some of its internal
structures (called wrappers). An attacker could use these flaws to bypass
some restrictions placed on them. This could lead to unexpected behavior
or a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2013-1694, CVE-2013-1697)

0.7 ESR, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Firefox
must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
