    Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and
    portability.
    Fixed bugs:
    CVE-2009-2462
    The browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 and Thunderbird allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors
    related to (1) the frame chain and synchronous events, (2) a SetMayHaveFrame assertion and
    nsCSSFrameConstructor::CreateFloatingLetterFrame, (3) nsCSSFrameConstructor::ConstructFrame, (4) the child
    list and initial reflow, (5) GetLastSpecialSibling, (6) nsFrameManager::GetPrimaryFrameFor and MathML, (7)
    nsFrame::GetBoxAscent, (8) nsCSSFrameConstructor::AdjustParentFrame, (9) nsDOMOfflineResourceList, and
    (10) nsContentUtils::ComparePosition.
    CVE-2009-2463
    Integer overflow in a base64 decoding function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 and Thunderbird allows
    remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly
    execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
    CVE-2009-2464
    The nsXULTemplateQueryProcessorRDF::CheckIsSeparator function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12, SeaMonkey
    2.0a1pre, and Thunderbird allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and
    application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to loading multiple RDF files in
    a XUL tree element.
    CVE-2009-2465
    Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 and Thunderbird allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
    corruption and application crash) or execute arbitrary code via vectors involving double frame
    construction, related to (1) nsHTMLContentSink.cpp, (2) nsXMLContentSink.cpp, and (3) nsPresShell.cpp, and
    the nsSubDocumentFrame::Reflow function.
    CVE-2009-2466
    The JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 and Thunderbird allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors
    related to (1) nsDOMClassInfo.cpp, (2) JS_HashTableRawLookup, and (3) MirrorWrappedNativeParent and
    js_LockGCThingRT.
    CVE-2009-2467
    Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 and 3.5 before 3.5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors involving a Flash object, a slow script
    dialog, and the unloading of the Flash plugin, which triggers attempted use of a deleted object.
    CVE-2009-2469
    Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 does not properly handle an SVG element that has a property with a watch
    function and an __defineSetter__ function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted document,
    related to a certain pointer misinterpretation.
    CVE-2009-2471
    The setTimeout function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 does not properly preserve object wrapping, which
    allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges via a crafted call, related
    to XPCNativeWrapper.
    CVE-2009-2472
    Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 does not always use XPCCrossOriginWrapper when required during object
    construction, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and conduct cross-site
    scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted document, related to a cross origin wrapper bypass.
