The SeaMonkey project is a community effort to deliver
|
|
production-quality releases of code derived from the application
|
|
formerly known as the 'Mozilla Application Suite'.

An anonymous researcher found evidence of memory corruption in the way
|
|
SeaMonkey handles certain types of SVG comment DOM nodes. Georgi
|
|
Guninski and David Bienvenu discovered buffer overflows in the
|
|
processing of long "Content-Type:" and long non-ASCII MIME email
|
|
headers. Additionally, Frederik Reiss discovered a heap-based buffer
|
|
overflow in the conversion of a CSS cursor. Several other issues with
|
|
memory corruption were also fixed. SeaMonkey also contains less severe
|
|
vulnerabilities involving JavaScript and Java.

<impact type="high">

|
|
An attacker could entice a user to load malicious JavaScript or a
|
|
malicious web page with a SeaMonkey application, possibly leading to
|
|
the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user running
|
|
those products. An attacker could also perform cross-site scripting
|
|
attacks, leading to the exposure of sensitive information, like user
|
|
credentials. Note that the execution of JavaScript or Java applets is
|
|
disabled by default in the SeaMonkey email client, and enabling it is
|
|
strongly discouraged.

<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time.

|

</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/seamonkey-1.0.7"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
