1. Problem Description

	The Mozilla 1.7.6 browser in this update represents a
	significant advancement in features and fixes over the
	Mozilla 1.2.1 released with UnixWare 7.1.4. 

	This update addresses the following security issues: 

	Technical Cyber Security Alert TA04-261A Multiple vulnerabilities in 
	Mozilla products 

	VU#414240 - Mozilla Mail vulnerable to buffer overflow via writeGroup()
		    function in nsVCardObj.cpp
	VU#847200 - Mozilla contains integer overflows in bitmap image decoder
	VU#808216 - Mozilla contains heap overflow in UTF8 conversion of 
		    hostname portion of URLs 
	VU#125776 - Multiple buffer overflows in Mozilla POP3 protocol handler 
	VU#327560 - Mozilla "send page" feature contains a buffer overflow 
	VU#651928 - Mozilla allows arbitrary code execution via link dragging 

	These vulnerabilities could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary
	code with the privileges of the user running the affected application.

	This fix also addresses several other security issues, and their
	CAN numbers are listed below. 

	The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) 
	has assigned the following names:CAN-2005-0399 CAN-2004-0597
