15 | Synopsis |
16 | ======== |
17 | |
18 | Several vulnerabilities in Mozilla Firefox allow attacks ranging from |
19 | execution of script code with elevated privileges to information |
20 | leaks. |
21 | |
22 | Background |
23 | ========== |
24 | |
25 | Mozilla Firefox is the next-generation web browser from the Mozilla |
26 | project. |
27 | |
28 | Affected packages |

40 | Description |
41 | =========== |
42 | |
43 | Several vulnerabilities were found in Mozilla Firefox. Versions 1.0.8 |
44 | and 1.5.0.2 were released to fix them. |
45 | |
46 | Impact |
47 | ====== |
48 | |
49 | A remote attacker could craft malicious web pages that would leverage |
50 | these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with elevated |
51 | privileges, steal local files, cookies or other information from web |
52 | pages, and spoof content. Some of these vulnerabilities might even be |
53 | exploited to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the browser |
54 | user. |
55 | |
56 | Workaround |
57 | ========== |
58 | |
59 | There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time. |
60 | |
61 | Resolution |
62 | ========== |
63 | |
64 | All Mozilla Firefox users should upgrade to the latest version: |
65 | |
66 | # emerge --sync |
67 | # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.0.8" |
68 | |
69 | All Mozilla Firefox binary users should upgrade to the latest version: |
70 | |
71 | # emerge --sync |
