Detail

Multiple security vulnerabilities have been identified in the mozilla-firefox web browser. These vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to execute code on the victim's machine via specially crafted network resources.

CAN-2005-2701

Heap overrun in XBM image processing

CAN-2005-2702

Denial of service (crash) and possible execution of arbitrary code via Unicode sequences with "zero-width non-joiner" characters.

CAN-2005-2703

XMLHttpRequest header spoofing

CAN-2005-2704

Object spoofing using XBL

CAN-2005-2705

JavaScript integer overflow

CAN-2005-2706

Privilege escalation using about: scheme

CAN-2005-2707

Chrome window spoofing allowing windows to be created without UI components such as a URL bar or status bar that could be used to carry out phishing attacks

For the stable distribution (sarge), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.4-2sarge5

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.7-1

We recommend that you upgrade your mozilla-firefox package.
