---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
A buffer overflow bug was found in the way Mozilla processes GIF images.
It is possible for an attacker to create a specially crafted GIF image,
which when viewed by a victim will execute arbitrary code as the victim.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2005-0399 to this issue.
A bug was found in the way Mozilla responds to proxy auth requests. It
is possible for a malicious webserver to steal credentials from a
victims browser by issuing a 407 proxy authentication request.
(CAN-2005-0147)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla displays dialog windows. It is
possible that a malicious web page which is being displayed in a
background tab could present the user with a dialog window appearing to
come from the active page. (CAN-2004-1380)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla Mail handles cookies when loading
content over HTTP regardless of the user's preference. It is possible
that a particular user could be tracked through the use of malicious
mail messages which load content over HTTP. (CAN-2005-0149)
A flaw was found in the way Mozilla displays international domain names.
It is possible for an attacker to display a valid URL, tricking the user
into thinking they are viewing a legitimate webpage when they are not.
(CAN-2005-0233)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla handles pop-up windows. It is
possible for a malicious website to control the content in an unrelated
site's pop-up window. (CAN-2004-1156)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla saves temporary files. Temporary
files are saved with world readable permissions, which could allow a
local malicious user to view potentially sensitive data. (CAN-2005-0142)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla handles synthetic middle click
events. It is possible for a malicious web page to steal the contents of
a victims clipboard. (CAN-2005-0146)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla processes XUL content. If a malicious
web page can trick a user into dragging an object, it is possible to
load malicious XUL content. (CAN-2005-0401)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla loads links in a new tab which are
middle clicked. A malicious web page could read local files or modify
privileged chrom settings. (CAN-2005-0141)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla displays the secure site icon. A
malicious web page can use a view-source URL targetted at a secure page,
while loading an insecure page, yet the secure site icon shows the
previous secure state. (CAN-2005-0144)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla displays the secure site icon. A
malicious web page can display the secure site icon by loading a binary
file from a secured site. (CAN-2005-0143)
A bug was found in the way Mozilla displays the download dialog window.
A malicious site can obfuscate the content displayed in the source
field, tricking a user into thinking they are downloading content from a
trusted source. (CAN-2005-0585)
Users of Mozilla are advised to upgrade to this updated package which
contains Mozilla version 1.7.6 to correct these issues.
