CVE-2008-0304

It was discovered that a buffer overflow in MIME decoding can lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2008-2785

It was discovered that missing boundary checks on a reference counter for CSS objects can lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2008-2798

Devon Hubbard, Jesse Ruderman and Martijn Wargers discovered crashes in the layout engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2008-2799

Igor Bukanov, Jesse Ruderman and Gary Kwong discovered crashes in the Javascript engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2008-2802

'moz_bug_r_a4' discovered that XUL documents can escalate privileges by accessing the pre-compiled 'fastload' file.

CVE-2008-2803

'moz_bug_r_a4' discovered that missing input sanitising in the mozIJSSubScriptLoader.loadSubScript() function could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. Iceweasel itself is not affected, but some addons are.

CVE-2008-2807

Daniel Glazman discovered that a programming error in the code for parsing .properties files could lead to memory content being exposed to addons, which could lead to information disclosure.

CVE-2008-2809

John G. Myers, Frank Benkstein and Nils Toedtmann discovered that alternate names on self-signed certificates were handled insufficiently, which could lead to spoofings secure connections.

CVE-2008-2811

Greg McManus discovered discovered a crash in the block reflow code, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.5.0.13+1.5.0.15b.dfsg1+prepatch080614d-0etch1. Packages for s390 are not yet available and will be provided later.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 2.0.0.16-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your icedove package.");
