    Package : xulrunner
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-3070 CVE-2009-3071 CVE-2009-3072 CVE-2009-3074 CVE-2009-3075 CVE-2009-3076 CVE-2009-3077 CVE-2009-3078

    Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xulrunner, a
    runtime environment for XUL applications, such as the Iceweasel web
    browser. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
    the following problems:

    CVE-2009-3070

    Jesse Ruderman discovered crashes in the layout engine, which
    might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

    CVE-2009-3071

    Daniel Holbert, Jesse Ruderman, Olli Pettay and "toshi" discovered
    crashes in the layout engine, which might allow the execution of
    arbitrary code.

    CVE-2009-3072

    Josh Soref, Jesse Ruderman and Martin Wargers discovered crashes
    in the layout engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary
    code.

    CVE-2009-3074

    Jesse Ruderman discovered a crash in the Javascript engine, which
    might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

    CVE-2009-3075

    Carsten Book and "Taral" discovered crashes in the layout engine,
    which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

    CVE-2009-3076

    Jesse Ruderman discovered that the user interface for installing/
    removing PCKS #11 securiy modules wasn't informative enough, which
    might allow social engineering attacks.

    CVE-2009-3077

    It was discovered that incorrect pointer handling in the XUL parser
    could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

    CVE-2009-3078

    Juan Pablo Lopez Yacubian discovered that incorrent rendering of
    some Unicode font characters could lead to spoofing attacks on
    the location bar.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed
    in version 1.9.0.14-0lenny1.

    As indicated in the Etch release notes, security support for the
    Mozilla products in the oldstable distribution needed to be stopped
    before the end of the regular Etch security maintenance life cycle.
    You are strongly encouraged to upgrade to stable or switch to a still
    supported browser.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.9.0.14-1.

    For the experimental distribution, these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.9.1.3-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your xulrunner package.
