The installed version of Firefox 3.6 is earlier than 3.6.20. As such, it is potentially affected by the following security issues :

  • A dangling pointer vulnerability exists in an SVG text manipulation routine. (CVE-2011-0084)

  • A DOM accounting error exists in the โ€˜appendChildโ€™ JavaScript function that can allow an invalid pointer to be dereferenced. (CVE-2011-2378)

  • An error exists in โ€˜ThinkPadSensor::Startupโ€™ that can allow malicious DLLs to be loaded. (CVE-2011-2980)

  • An error exists in the event management code that can allow JavaScript to execute in the context of a different website and possibly in the chrome-privileged context. (CVE-2011-2981)

  • Various unspecified memory safety issues exist. (CVE-2011-2982)

  • A cross-domain information disclosure vulnerability exists if the configuration option โ€˜RegExp.inputโ€™ is set. (CVE-2011-2983)

  • A privilege escalation vulnerability exists if web content is registered to handle โ€˜dropโ€™ events and a browser tab is dropped in that elementโ€™s area. This can allow the web content to execute with browser chrome privileges. (CVE-2011-2984)
