tag_insight = "USN-626-1 fixed vulnerabilities in xulrunner-1.9. The changes required
  that Devhelp, Epiphany, Midbrowser and Yelp also be updated to use the
  new xulrunner-1.9.

  Original advisory details:
  
  A flaw was discovered in the browser engine. A variable could be made to
  overflow causing the browser to crash. If a user were tricked into opening
  a malicious web page, an attacker could cause a denial of service or
  possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking
  the program. (CVE-2008-2785)
  
  Billy Rios discovered that Firefox and xulrunner, as used by browsers
  such as Epiphany, did not properly perform URI splitting with pipe
  symbols when passed a command-line URI. If Firefox or xulrunner were
  passed a malicious URL, an attacker may be able to execute local
  content with chrome privileges. (CVE-2008-2933)";
