Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

• CVE-2008-0412
  Jesse Ruderman, Kai Engert, Martijn Wargers, Mats Palmgren and Paul
  Nickerson discovered crashes in the layout engine, which might allow
  the execution of arbitrary code.
• CVE-2008-0413
  Carsten Book, Wesley Garland, Igor Bukanov, moz_bug_r_a4, shutdown,
  Philip Taylor and tgirmann discovered crashes in the JavaScript
  engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.
• CVE-2008-0415
  moz_bug_r_a4 and Boris Zbarsky discovered several
  vulnerabilities in JavaScript handling, which could allow
  privilege escalation.
• CVE-2008-0418
  Gerry Eisenhaur and moz_bug_r_a4 discovered that a directory
  traversal vulnerability in chrome: URI handling could lead to
  information disclosure.
• CVE-2008-0419
  David Bloom discovered a race condition in the image handling of
  designMode elements, which can lead to information disclosure and
  potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
• CVE-2008-0591
  Michal Zalewski discovered that timers protecting security-sensitive
  dialogs (by disabling dialog elements until a timeout is reached)
  could be bypassed by window focus changes through JavaScript.

The Mozilla products from the old stable distribution (sarge) are no
longer supported with security updates.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.5.0.13+1.5.0.15b.dfsg1-0etch2.

We recommend that you upgrade your icedove packages.
