critical Nessus Plugin ID 45521

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in mozilla-thunderbird :

Mozilla Thunderbird before 2.0.0.24 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.19 process e-mail attachments with a parser that performs casts and line termination incorrectly, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted message, related to message indexing (CVE-2009-0689).

Integer overflow in a base64 decoding function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.12 and Thunderbird allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors (CVE-2009-2463).

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.14, and 3.5.x before 3.5.3, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors (CVE-2009-3072).

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the JavaScript engine in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.14, and 3.5.x before 3.5.2, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors (CVE-2009-3075).

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.14, and 3.5.x before 3.5.3, does not properly manage pointers for the columns (aka TreeColumns) of a XUL tree element, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML document, related to a dangling pointer vulnerability. (CVE-2009-3077)

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.15 and 3.5.x before 3.5.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.0, does not properly handle a right-to-left override (aka RLO or U+202E) Unicode character in a download filename, which allows remote attackers to spoof file extensions via a crafted filename, as demonstrated by displaying a non-executable extension for an executable file (CVE-2009-3376).

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.16 and 3.5.x before 3.5.6, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.1, allows remote attackers to send authenticated requests to arbitrary applications by replaying the NTLM credentials of a browser user (CVE-2009-3983).

Mozilla Thunderbird before 2.0.0.24 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.19 process e-mail attachments with a parser that performs casts and line termination incorrectly, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted message, related to message indexing (CVE-2010-0163).

This update provides the latest version of Thunderbird which are not vulnerable to these issues.

Packages for 2008.0 and 2009.0 are provided due to the Extended Maintenance Program for those products.

Additionally, some packages which require so, have been rebuilt and are being provided as updates.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
