Debian DSA-2180-1 : iceape - several vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 52537

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Several vulnerabilities have been found in the Iceape internet suite, an unbranded version of SeaMonkey :

- CVE-2010-1585 Roberto Suggi Liverani discovered that the sanitising performed by ParanoidFragmentSink was incomplete.

- CVE-2011-0051 Zach Hoffmann discovered that incorrect parsing of recursive eval() calls could lead to attackers forcing acceptance of a confirmation dialogue.

- CVE-2011-0053 Crashes in the layout engine may lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

- CVE-2011-0054 Christian Holler discovered buffer overflows in the JavaScript engine, which could allow the execution of arbitrary code.

- CVE-2011-0055 'regenrecht' and Igor Bukanov discovered a use-after-free error in the JSON-Implementation, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

- CVE-2011-0056 Christian Holler discovered buffer overflows in the JavaScript engine, which could allow the execution of arbitrary code.

- CVE-2011-0057 Daniel Kozlowski discovered that incorrect memory handling the web workers implementation could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

- CVE-2011-0059 Peleus Uhley discovered a cross-site request forgery risk in the plugin code.

The oldstable distribution (lenny) is not affected. The iceape package only provides the XPCOM code.

Solution

Upgrade the iceape packages.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.11-3.
