1. Topic:

Updated mozilla packages that fix various security issues are now
available.

Mozilla is an open source Web browser, advanced email and newsgroup
client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386
Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
Fedora Core 1 - i386
Fedora Core 2 - i386

3. Problem description:

A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled synthetic events. It is
possible that Web content could generate events such as keystrokes or
mouse clicks that could be used to steal data or execute malicious
Javascript code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
(cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2260 to this issue.

A bug was found in the way Mozilla executed Javascript in XBL controls.
It is possible for a malicious webpage to leverage this vulnerability to
execute other JavaScript based attacks even when JavaScript is disabled.
(CAN-2005-2261)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla installed its extensions. If a user
can be tricked into visiting a malicious webpage, it may be possible to
obtain sensitive information such as cookies or passwords.
(CAN-2005-2263)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled certain Javascript functions.
It is possible for a malicious webpage to crash the browser by executing
malformed Javascript code. (CAN-2005-2265)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled multiple frame domains. It is
possible for a frame as part of a malicious website to inject content
into a frame that belongs to another domain. This issue was previously
fixed as CAN-2004-0718 but was accidentally disabled. (CAN-2005-1937)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled child frames. It is possible
for a malicious framed page to steal sensitive information from its
parent page. (CAN-2005-2266)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla opened URLs from media players. If a
media player opens a URL which is Javascript, the Javascript executes
with access to the currently open webpage. (CAN-2005-2267)

A design flaw was found in the way Mozilla displayed alerts and prompts.
Alerts and prompts were given the generic title [JavaScript Application]
which prevented a user from knowing which site created them.
(CAN-2005-2268)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled DOM node names. It is
possible for a malicious site to overwrite a DOM node name, allowing
certain privileged chrome actions to execute the malicious Javascript.
(CAN-2005-2269)

A bug was found in the way Mozilla cloned base objects. It is possible
for Web content to traverse the prototype chain to gain access to
privileged chrome objects. (CAN-2005-2270)

Users of Mozilla are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain Mozilla version 1.7.10 and are not vulnerable to these issues.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which
are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note
that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only*
contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use yum issue:

yum update

or to use apt:

apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. This assumes that you
have yum or apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content.
Please visit http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to
configure yum and apt-get.

Fedora Legacy Update Advisory

Synopsis: Updated Zlib packagea fix security issues
Advisory ID: FLSA:162680
Issue date: 2005-09-14
Product: Fedora Core
Keywords: Bugfix
CVE Names: CAN-2005-1849 CAN-2005-2096
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------


- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:

Updated Zlib packages that fix buffer overflows are now available.

Zlib is a general-purpose lossless data compression library which is
used by many different programs.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Fedora Core 1 - i386
Fedora Core 2 - i386

3. Problem description:

Tavis Ormandy discovered a buffer overflow affecting Zlib version 1.2
and above. An attacker could create a carefully crafted compressed
stream that would cause an application to crash if the stream is opened
by a user. As an example, an attacker could create a malicious PNG image
file which would cause a web browser or mail viewer to crash if the
image is viewed. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
assigned the name CAN-2005-2096 to this issue.

Markus Oberhumer discovered additional ways a stream could trigger an
overflow. An attacker could create a carefully crafted compressed stream
that would cause an application to crash if the stream is opened by a
user. As an example, an attacker could create a malicious PNG image file
that would cause a Web browser or mail viewer to crash if the image is
viewed. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
assigned the name CAN-2005-1849 to this issue.

All users should update to these erratum packages which contain a patch
from Mark Adler which corrects this issue.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which
are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note
that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only*
contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use yum issue:

yum update

or to use apt:

apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. This assumes that you
have yum or apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content.
Please visit http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to
configure yum and apt-get.

Fedora Legacy Update Advisory

Synopsis: Updated squirrelmail package fixes security issues
Advisory ID: FLSA:163047
Issue date: 2005-09-14
Product: Red Hat Linux, Fedora Core
Keywords: Bugfix
CVE Names: CAN-2005-1769 CAN-2005-2095
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------


- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:

An updated squirrelmail package that fixes two security issues is now
available.

SquirrelMail is a standards-based webmail package written in PHP4.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
Fedora Core 1 - i386
Fedora Core 2 - i386

3. Problem description:

A bug was found in the way SquirrelMail handled the $_POST variable. If
a user is tricked into visiting a malicious URL, the user's SquirrelMail
preferences could be read or modified. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project assigned the name CAN-2005-2095 to this issue.

Several cross-site scripting bugs were discovered in SquirrelMail. An
attacker could inject arbitrary Javascript or HTML content into
SquirrelMail pages by tricking a user into visiting a carefully crafted
URL, or by sending them a carefully constructed HTML email message. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name
CAN-2005-1769 to this issue.

All users of SquirrelMail should upgrade to this updated package, which
contains backported patches that resolve these issues.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those

Fedora Legacy Update Advisory

Synopsis: Updated CUPS packages fix security issue
Advisory ID: FLSA:163274
Issue date: 2005-09-14
Product: Red Hat Linux, Fedora Core
Keywords: Bugfix
CVE Names: CAN-2005-2154
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------


- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:

Updated CUPS packages that fix a security issue are now available.

The Common UNIX Printing System provides a portable printing layer for
UNIX(R) operating systems.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386
Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
Fedora Core 1 - i386
Fedora Core 2 - i386

3. Problem description:

When processing a request, the CUPS scheduler would use case-sensitive
matching on the queue name to decide which authorization policy should
be used. However, queue names are not case-sensitive. An unauthorized
user could print to a password-protected queue without needing a
password. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned
the name CAN-2005-2154 to this issue.

All users of CUPS should upgrade to these erratum packages which contain
a backported patch to correct this issue.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]
