+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Mozilla Firefox is a popular open-source web browser from the Mozilla
+ Project.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Mozilla Firefox improperly handles Script objects while they are being
+ executed. Mozilla Firefox has also been found to be vulnerable to
+ various possible buffer overflows. Lastly, the binary release of
+ Mozilla Firefox is vulnerable to a low exponent RSA signature forgery
+ issue because it is bundled with a vulnerable version of NSS.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could entice a user to view specially crafted JavaScript
+ and execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running Mozilla
+ Firefox. An attacker could also entice a user to view a specially
+ crafted web page that causes a buffer overflow and again executes
+ arbitrary code. It is also possible for an attacker to make up SSL/TLS
+ certificates that would not be detected as invalid by the binary
+ release of Mozilla Firefox, raising the possibility for
+ Man-in-the-Middle attacks.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Mozilla Firefox users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.8"</code>
+ <p>
+ All Mozilla Firefox binary release users should upgrade to the latest
+ version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-1.5.0.8"</code>
