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-2008-2785
    It was discovered that missing boundary checks on a reference
    counter for CSS objects can lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
  • CVE-2008-2798
    Devon Hubbard, Jesse Ruderman and Martijn Wargers discovered
    crashes in the layout engine, which might allow the execution of
    arbitrary code.
  • CVE-2008-2799
    Igor Bukanov, Jesse Ruderman and Gary Kwong discovered crashes in
    the Javascript engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.
  • CVE-2008-2800
    moz_bug_r_a4 discovered several cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.
  • CVE-2008-2801
    Collin Jackson and Adam Barth discovered that Javascript code
    could be executed in the context of signed JAR archives.
  • CVE-2008-2802
    moz_bug_r_a4 discovered that XUL documents can escalate
    privileges by accessing the pre-compiled fastload file.
  • CVE-2008-2803
    moz_bug_r_a4 discovered that missing input sanitising in the
    mozIJSSubScriptLoader.loadSubScript() function could lead to the
    execution of arbitrary code. Iceweasel itself is not affected, but
    some addons are.
  • CVE-2008-2805
    Claudio Santambrogio discovered that missing access validation in
    DOM parsing allows malicious web sites to force the browser to
    upload local files to the server, which could lead to information
    disclosure.
  • CVE-2008-2807
    Daniel Glazman discovered that a programming error in the code for
    parsing .properties files could lead to memory content being
    exposed to addons, which could lead to information disclosure.
  • CVE-2008-2808
    Masahiro Yamada discovered that file URLs in directory listings
    were insufficiently escaped.
  • CVE-2008-2809
    John G. Myers, Frank Benkstein and Nils Toedtmann discovered that
    alternate names on self-signed certificates were handled
    insufficiently, which could lead to spoofing of secure connections.
  • CVE-2008-2811
    Greg McManus discovered a crash in the block reflow
    code, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.
  • CVE-2008-2933
    Billy Rios discovered that passing an URL containing a pipe symbol
    to Iceweasel can lead to Chrome privilege escalation.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.8.0.15~pre080614d-0etch1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.0.1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your xulrunner packages.
