xulrunner - several vulnerabilities

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xulrunner, a
runtime environment for XUL applications. The Common Vulnerabilities
and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

• CVE-2007-1095
  Michal Zalewski discovered that the unload event handler had access to
  the address of the next page to be loaded, which could allow information
  disclosure or spoofing.
• CVE-2007-2292
  Stefano Di Paola discovered that insufficient validation of user names
  used in Digest authentication on a web site allows HTTP response splitting
  attacks.
• CVE-2007-3511
  It was discovered that insecure focus handling of the file upload
  control can lead to information disclosure. This is a variant of
  CVE-2006-2894.
• CVE-2007-5334
  Eli Friedman discovered that web pages written in Xul markup can hide the
  titlebar of windows, which can lead to spoofing attacks.
• CVE-2007-5337
  Georgi Guninski discovered the insecure handling of smb:// and sftp:// URI
  schemes may lead to information disclosure. This vulnerability is only
  exploitable if Gnome-VFS support is present on the system.
• CVE-2007-5338
  moz_bug_r_a4 discovered that the protection scheme offered by XPCNativeWrappers
  could be bypassed, which might allow privilege escalation.
• CVE-2007-5339
  L. David Baron, Boris Zbarsky, Georgi Guninski, Paul Nickerson, Olli Pettay,
  Jesse Ruderman, Vladimir Sukhoy, Daniel Veditz, and Martijn Wargers discovered
  crashes in the layout engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.
• CVE-2007-5340
  Igor Bukanov, Eli Friedman, and Jesse Ruderman discovered crashes in the
  JavaScript engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

The oldstable distribution (sarge) doesn’t contain xulrunner.

For the stable distribution (etch) these problems have been fixed in version
1.8.0.14~pre071019b-0etch1. Builds for hppa and mipsel will be provided later.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your xulrunner packages.
