Detail

We experienced that the update for Mozilla Firefox from DSA 779-1 unfortunately was a regression in several cases. Since the usual praxis of backporting apparently does not work, this update is basically version 1.0.6 with the version number rolled back, and hence still named 1.0.4-*. For completeness below is the original advisory text:

Several problems have been discovered in Mozilla Firefox, a lightweight web browser based on Mozilla. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CAN-2005-2260

The browser user interface does not properly distinguish between user-generated events and untrusted synthetic events, which makes it easier for remote attackers to perform dangerous actions that normally could only be performed manually by the user.

CAN-2005-2261

XML scripts ran even when Javascript disabled.

CAN-2005-2262

The user can be tricked to executing arbitrary JavaScript code by using a JavaScript URL as wallpaper.

CAN-2005-2263

It is possible for a remote attacker to execute a callback function in the context of another domain (i.e. frame).

CAN-2005-2264

By opening a malicious link in the sidebar it is possible for remote attackers to steal sensitive information.

CAN-2005-2265

Missing input sanitising of InstallVersion.compareTo() can cause the application to crash.

CAN-2005-2266

Remote attackers could steal sensitive information such as cookies and passwords from web sites by accessing data in alien frames.

CAN-2005-2267

By using standalone applications such as Flash and QuickTime to open a javascript: URL, it is possible for a remote attacker to steal sensitive information and possibly execute arbitrary code.

CAN-2005-2268

It is possible for a Javascript dialog box to spoof a dialog box from a trusted site and facilitates phishing attacks.

CAN-2005-2269

Remote attackers could modify certain tag properties of DOM nodes that could lead to the execution of arbitrary script or code.

CAN-2005-2270

The Mozilla browser familie does not properly clone base objects, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

The old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by these problems.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.4-2sarge3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.6-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your Mozilla Firefox packages.

Title: RHE4 Firefox and Mozilla DOM Node Spoofing
Description: Firefox before 1.0.5, Mozilla before 1.7.9, and Netscape 8.0.2 does not properly verify the associated types of DOM node names within the context of their namespaces, which allows remote attackers to modify certain tag properties, possibly leading to execution of arbitrary script or code, as demonstrated using an XHTML document with IMG tags with custom properties ("XHTML node spoofing").
Family: unix Class: vulnerability

Title: RHE3 Improper Handling of Synthetic Events in Mozilla
Description: The browser user interface in Firefox before 1.0.5, Mozilla before 1.7.9, and Netscape 8.0.2 and 7.2 does not properly distinguish between user-generated events and untrusted synthetic events, which makes it easier for remote attackers to perform dangerous actions that normally could only be performed manually by the user.

Title: RHE3 Mozilla top.focus() Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Description: Firefox before 1.0.5 and Mozilla before 1.7.9 allows a child frame to call top.focus and other methods in a parent frame, even when the parent is in a different domain, which violates the same origin policy and allows remote attackers to steal sensitive information such as cookies and passwords from web sites whose child frames do not verify that they are in the same domain as their parents.

Title: RHE3 InstallVersion.compareTo() DoS and Code Execution Vulnerability
Description: Firefox before 1.0.5, Mozilla before 1.7.9, and Netscape 8.0.2 and 7.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (access violation and crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code, by calling InstallVersion.compareTo with an object instead of a string.

Title: RHE4 XBL Script Security Bypass Vulnerability
Description: Firefox before 1.0.5, Thunderbird before 1.0.5, Mozilla before 1.7.9, Netscape 8.0.2, and K-Meleon 0.9 runs XBL scripts even when Javascript has been disabled, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass such protection.
