The three vulnerabilities found in mozilla firefox and seamonkey, also effect xulrunner

CVE-2007-5947
Quote:
The jar protocol handler in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 retrieves the inner URL regardless of its MIME type, and considers HTML documents within a jar archive to have the same origin as the inner URL, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a jar: URI.


CVE-2007-5959
Quote:
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.7 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors that trigger memory corrupti


CVE-2007-5960
Quote:
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.10 and SeaMonkey 1.1.7 sets the Referer header to the window or frame in which script is running, instead of the address of the content that initiated the script, which allows remote attackers to spoof HTTP Referer headers and bypass Referer-based CSRF protection schemes by setting window.location and using a modal alert dialog that causes the wrong Referer to be sent.


Both the CURRENT and SNAPSHOT repo has only version 1.8.1.7pre, maybe we should update the package along with 5.0 release.

!8! !8! !8!

I'm confused  ;D

IceWeasel is at 2.0.0.11, and Seamonkey is at 1.1.7, both of which are the most recent non-beta versions....

I believe it means the versions before firefox 2.0.0.11 and Seamonkey 1.1.7 are vulnerable. But this alert is really about xulrunner...

This would mean it will affect several of the gnome packages as they also depend on xulrunner.
