  Moxie Marlinspike reported a heap overflow flaw in a regular expression
  parser in the NSS library (provided by SeaMonkey) used to match common
  names in certificates. A malicious website could present a
  carefully-crafted certificate in such a way as to trigger the heap
  overflow, leading to a crash or, possibly, arbitrary code execution with
  the permissions of the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2009-2404)
  
  Note: in order to exploit this issue without further user interaction, the
  carefully-crafted certificate would need to be signed by a Certificate
  Authority trusted by SeaMonkey, otherwise SeaMonkey presents the victim
  with a warning that the certificate is untrusted. Only if the user then
  accepts the certificate will the overflow take place.
  
  All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
  a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing the updated
  packages, SeaMonkey must be restarted for the update to take effect.";
