    overflow.

  - A buffer-overflow vulnerability.

  - A security-bypass vulnerability, that allows for control characters to be
    set in cookie names.

  - A lack of delay following user click events in the protocol handler dialog,
    resulting in double click events to be treated as two single click events.

  - Calculations with mp_div and mp_exptmod in Network Security Services (NSS)
    can produce wrong results in some circumstances, leading to potential
    cryptographic weaknesses.

  - Multiple security-bypass vulnerabilities exist for address bar spoofing
    attacks, that can lead to potential spoofing.

  - A Use-after-free vulnerability in the 'ssl3_HandleECDHServerKeyExchange'
    function.");
