tag_insight = "USN-1681-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. Due to an upstream regression,
some translations became unusable after upgrading. This update fixes the
problem.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Original advisory details:
Christoph Diehl, Christian Holler, Mats Palmgren, Chiaki Ishikawa, Bill
Gianopoulos, Benoit Jacob, Gary Kwong, Robert O'Callahan, Jesse Ruderman,
and Julian Seward discovered multiple memory safety issues affecting
Firefox. If the user were tricked into opening a specially crafted page, an
attacker could possibly exploit these to cause a denial of service via
application crash, or potentially execute code with the privileges of the
user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2013-0769, CVE-2013-0749, CVE-2013-0770)
Abhishek Arya discovered several user-after-free and buffer overflows in
Firefox. An attacker could exploit these to cause a denial of service via
application crash, or potentially execute code with the privileges of the
user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2013-0760, CVE-2013-0761, CVE-2013-0762,
CVE-2013-0763, CVE-2013-0766, CVE-2013-0767, CVE-2013-0771, CVE-2012-5829)
A stack buffer was discovered in Firefox. If the user were tricked into
opening a specially crafted page, an attacker could possibly exploit this
to cause a denial of service via application crash, or potentially execute
code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2013-0768)
Masato Kinugawa discovered that Firefox did not always properly display URL
values in the address bar. A remote attacker could exploit this to conduct
URL spoofing and phishing attacks. (CVE-2013-0759)
Atte Kettunen discovered that Firefox did not properly handle HTML tables
with a large number of columns and column groups. If the user were tricked
into opening a specially crafted page, an attacker could exploit this to
cause a denial of service via application crash, or potentially execute
code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2013-0744)
Jerry Baker discovered that Firefox did not always properly handle
threading when performing downloads over SSL connections. An attacker could
exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash.
(CVE-2013-0764)
Olli Pettay and Boris Zbarsky discovered flaws in the Javacript engine of
Firefox. An attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash,
or potentially execute code with the privileges of the user invoking
Firefox. (CVE-2013-0745, CVE-2013-0746)
Jesse Ruderman discovered a flaw in the way ...
