The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200604-12 (Mozilla Firefox: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Several vulnerabilities were found in Mozilla Firefox. Versions     1.0.8 and 1.5.0.2 were released to fix them.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could craft malicious web pages that would     leverage these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with     elevated privileges, steal local files, cookies or other information     from web pages, and spoof content. Some of these vulnerabilities might     even be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the     browser user.
  Workaround :

    There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time.

A number of vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Mozilla Thunderbird email client that could allow a remote attacker to craft malicious web emails that could take advantage of these issues to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges, spoof content, and steal local files, or other information. As well, some of these vulnerabilities can be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the program.

As well, two crasher bugs have been fixed as well.

The updated packages have been patched to fix these problems.

Web pages with extremely long titles caused subsequent launches of Mozilla browser to hang for up to a few minutes, or caused Mozilla to crash on computers with insufficient memory. (CVE-2005-4134)

Igor Bukanov discovered that the JavaScript engine did not properly declare some temporary variables. Under some rare circumstances, a malicious website could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user. (CVE-2006-0292, CVE-2006-1742)

The function XULDocument.persist() did not sufficiently validate the names of attributes. An attacker could exploit this to inject arbitrary XML code into the file 'localstore.rdf', which is read and evaluated at startup. This could include JavaScript commands that would be run with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-0296)

Due to a flaw in the HTML tag parser a specific sequence of HTML tags caused memory corruption. A malicious website could exploit this to crash the browser or even execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-0748)

An invalid ordering of table-related tags caused Mozilla to use a negative array index. A malicious website could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user.
(CVE-2006-0749)

Georgi Guninski discovered that embedded XBL scripts of websites could escalate their (normally reduced) privileges to get full privileges of the user if that page is viewed with 'Print Preview'. (CVE-2006-1727)

The crypto.generateCRMFRequest() function had a flaw which could be exploited to run arbitrary code with the user's privileges.
(CVE-2006-1728)

Claus Jorgensen and Jesse Ruderman discovered that a text input box could be pre-filled with a filename and then turned into a file-upload control with the contents intact. A malicious website could exploit this to read any local file the user has read privileges for.
(CVE-2006-1729)

An integer overflow was detected in the handling of the CSS property 'letter-spacing'. A malicious website could exploit this to run arbitrary code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-1730)

The methods valueOf.call() and .valueOf.apply() returned an object whose privileges were not properly confined to those of the caller, which made them vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks. A malicious website could exploit this to modify the contents or steal confidential data (such as passwords) from other opened web pages.
(CVE-2006-1731) The window.controllers array variable (CVE-2006-1732) and event handlers (CVE-2006-1741) were vulnerable to a similar attack. 

The privileged built-in XBL bindings were not fully protected from web content and could be accessed by calling valueOf.call() and valueOf.apply() on a method of that binding. A malicious website could exploit this to run arbitrary JavaScript code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-1733)

It was possible to use the Object.watch() method to access an internal function object (the 'clone parent'). A malicious website could exploit this to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-1734)

By calling the XBL.method.eval() method in a special way it was possible to create JavaScript functions that would get compiled with the wrong privileges. A malicious website could exploit this to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with the user's privileges.
(CVE-2006-1735)

Michael Krax discovered that by layering a transparent image link to an executable on top of a visible (and presumably desirable) image a malicious site could fool the user to right-click and choose 'Save image as...' from the context menu, which would download the executable instead of the image. (CVE-2006-1736)

Several crashes have been fixed which could be triggered by websites and involve memory corruption. These could potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2006-1737, CVE-2006-1738, CVE-2006-1739, CVE-2006-1790)

If the user has turned on the 'Entering secure site' modal warning dialog, it was possible to spoof the browser's secure-site indicators (the lock icon and the gold URL field background) by first loading the target secure site in a pop-up window, then changing its location to a different site, which retained the displayed secure-browsing indicators from the original site. (CVE-2006-1740).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Updated mozilla packages that fix several security bugs are now available.

This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

[Updated 24 Apr 2006] The erratum text has been updated to include the details of additional issues that were fixed by these erratum packages but which were not public at the time of release. No changes have been made to the packages.

Mozilla is an open source Web browser, advanced email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor.

Several bugs were found in the way Mozilla processes malformed JavaScript. A malicious web page could modify the content of a different open web page, possibly stealing sensitive information or conducting a cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2006-1731, CVE-2006-1732, CVE-2006-1741)

Several bugs were found in the way Mozilla processes certain JavaScript actions. A malicious web page could execute arbitrary JavaScript instructions with the permissions of 'chrome', allowing the page to steal sensitive information or install browser malware.
(CVE-2006-1727, CVE-2006-1728, CVE-2006-1733, CVE-2006-1734, CVE-2006-1735, CVE-2006-1742)

Several bugs were found in the way Mozilla processes malformed web pages. A carefully crafted malicious web page could cause the execution of arbitrary code as the user running Mozilla.
(CVE-2006-0748, CVE-2006-0749, CVE-2006-1730, CVE-2006-1737, CVE-2006-1738, CVE-2006-1739, CVE-2006-1790)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla displays the secure site icon. If a browser is configured to display the non-default secure site modal warning dialog, it may be possible to trick a user into believing they are viewing a secure site. (CVE-2006-1740)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla allows JavaScript mutation events on 'input' form elements. A malicious web page could be created in such a way that when a user submits a form, an arbitrary file could be uploaded to the attacker. (CVE-2006-1729)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla executes in-line mail forwarding.
If a user can be tricked into forwarding a maliciously crafted mail message as in-line content, it is possible for the message to execute JavaScript with the permissions of 'chrome'. (CVE-2006-0884)

Users of Mozilla are advised to upgrade to these updated packages containing Mozilla version 1.7.13 which corrects these issues.

Mozilla 1.7_x86 for Solaris 8 and 9.
