From security@linux-mandrake.com Thu Mar 11 01:12:35 2004 From: Mandrake Linux Security Team To: full-disclosure@lists.netsys.com Date: 10 Mar 2004 16:28:13 -0000 Subject: [Full-Disclosure] MDKSA-2004:021 - Updated mozilla packages fix multiple vulnerabilities -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory _______________________________________________________________________ Package name: mozilla Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:021 Date: March 10th, 2004 Affected versions: 9.2 ______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in Mozilla 1.4: A malicious website could gain access to a user's authentication credentials to a proxy server. Script.prototype.freeze/thaw could allow an attacker to run arbitrary code on your computer. A vulnerability was also discovered in the NSS security suite which ships with Mozilla. The S/MIME implementation would allow remote attackers to cause a Denial of Service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an S/MIME email message containing certain unexpected ASN.1 constructs, which was demonstrated using the NISCC test suite. NSS version 3.9 corrects these problems and has been included in this package (which shipped with NSS 3.8). Finally, Corsaire discovered that a number of HTTP user agents contained a flaw in how they handle cookies. This flaw could allow an attacker to avoid the path restrictions specified by a cookie's originator. According to their advisory: "The cookie specifications detail a path argument that can be used to restrict the areas of a host that will be exposed to a cookie. By using standard traversal techniques this functionality can be subverted, potentially exposing the cookie to scrutiny and use in further attacks." As well, a bug with Mozilla and Finnish keyboards has been corrected. The updated packages are patched to correct these vulnerabilities. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0594 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0564 http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/428230 http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220122 http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221526 http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213012 http://www.uniras.gov.uk/vuls/2003/006489/smime.htm ______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandrakelinux 9.2: c38912bc7ec63477a99d54ca9d0da6a2 9.2/RPMS/libnspr4-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 0389815c9e7dbe3e10fc0c26375bb3b1 9.2/RPMS/libnspr4-devel-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 7646ec4e16c2c9358dcc98ebabf0a3b9 9.2/RPMS/libnss3-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 63a527da7c61047ba425606e94ecd3be 9.2/RPMS/libnss3-devel-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm e8bbe96aeb65cfab46ffe2aa354d902f 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm dfa83fa168d574770a8799c581e18335 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-devel-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm bb2b9c485b566b219749366c62500721 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm ad11d0c4800bd95452d00a8ebaf5d98b 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-enigmail-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 5fc51520069a0eba9f5a53dc93ba4eab 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-enigmime-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 54bc668f3881fc320ee5d7c5a47cf691 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-irc-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm adee5ba7d06873222b272fd5cb4002a6 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-js-debugger-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 8ae4e6c230046102f6fb3718ea89a44c 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-mail-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 1e1d178eb6e1b712ed4172fbcb9645a8 9.2/RPMS/mozilla-spellchecker-1.4-13.2.92mdk.i586.rpm 18dcce51283517af9f1d280e4cc671b2 9.2/SRPMS/mozilla-1.4-13.2.92mdk.src.rpm Mandrakelinux 9.2/AMD64: 5452e154db36916d4e0710001a8c1bf4 amd64/9.2/RPMS/lib64nspr4-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 0dd5edee872e319e43b055348b439eb3 amd64/9.2/RPMS/lib64nspr4-devel-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 18d23cac7a7eb9a45c40e484a42665fb amd64/9.2/RPMS/lib64nss3-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 96e5b7a0bffa68a8a26f0fc0c33179bb amd64/9.2/RPMS/lib64nss3-devel-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 8f86da0aafcf57ce795935354bfe1284 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 4294cda22a8639804d64961b5232217b amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-devel-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm fe1d7bbfcff75ed48276b125e5e07150 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 0389b9624511d9bfa8f9873c64e78819 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-enigmail-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm f65b2fdf67002011cf138a7fc2a15048 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-enigmime-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 3908bf0f64951a31d0b0d13fbed460f1 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-irc-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm e75e31efbc498cc11851c75c44233e93 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-js-debugger-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm dee877e87556e579d54668a1e3a0bbf2 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-mail-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 09155dea70b8b6cf7afdd13a27dede18 amd64/9.2/RPMS/mozilla-spellchecker-1.4-13.2.92mdk.amd64.rpm 18dcce51283517af9f1d280e4cc671b2 amd64/9.2/SRPMS/mozilla-1.4-13.2.92mdk.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ Bug IDs fixed (see http://bugs.mandrakelinux.com for more information): 376 - mozilla and finnish keyboard give pipe _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi.
