Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and portability.

Several flaws were found in the way Firefox processed certain malformed JavaScript code. A web page containing malicious JavaScript code could cause Firefox to crash or potentially execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2007-3734, CVE-2007-3735)

Several flaws were found in the way Firefox handles certain JavaScript code. A web page containing malicious JavaScript code could inject arbitrary content into other web pages. (CVE-2007-3736, CVE-2007-3089)

A flaw was found in the way Firefox cached web pages on the local disk. A malicious web page may be able to inject arbitrary HTML into a browsing session if the user reloads a targeted site. (CVE-2007-3656)

A flaw was found in the way Firefox processes certain web content. A web page containing malicious content could execute arbitrary commands as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2007-3737, CVE-2007-3738)

Users of Firefox are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which contain backported patches that correct these issues.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
