Mozilla/Firefox (SSA:2005-135-01)

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 05/16/2005 06:22 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

New Mozilla packages are available for Slackware 10.0, 10.1, and -current to fix various security issues and bugs. See the Mozilla site for a complete list of the issues patched:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#Mozilla

Also updated is Firefox in Slackware -current.

New versions of the mozilla-plugins symlink creation package are also out for Slackware 10.0 and 10.1, and a new version of the jre-symlink package for Slackware -current.




Here are the details from the Slackware 10.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/mozilla-plugins-1.7.8-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded Java(TM)
symlink for Mozilla.
patches/packages/mozilla-1.7.8-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to mozilla-1.7.8.
Two vulnerabilities found in Mozilla Firefox 1.0.3 when combined allow an
attacker to run arbitrary code. The Mozilla Suite version 1.7.7 is only
partially vulnerable. For more details, see:
http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/mfsa2005-42.html
(* Security fix *)
