+ <title>SeaMonkey: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in SeaMonkey, some of which may
+ allow user-assisted arbitrary remote code execution.

+ The SeaMonkey project is a community effort to deliver
+ production-quality releases of code derived from the application
+ formerly known as the 'Mozilla Application Suite'.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Tom Ferris reported a heap-based buffer overflow involving wide SVG
+ stroke widths that affects SeaMonkey. Various researchers reported some
+ errors in the JavaScript engine potentially leading to memory
+ corruption. SeaMonkey also contains minor vulnerabilities involving
+ cache collision and unsafe pop-up restrictions, filtering or CSS
+ rendering under certain conditions. All those vulnerabilities are the
+ same as in GLSA 200703-04 affecting Mozilla Firefox.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web page or
+ to read a specially crafted email that will trigger one of the
+ vulnerabilities, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
+ It is also possible for an attacker to spoof the address bar, steal
+ information through cache collision, bypass the local file protection
+ mechanism with pop-ups, or perform cross-site scripting attacks,
+ leading to the exposure of sensitive information, such as user
+ credentials.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time for all of these issues, but
+ most of them can be avoided by disabling JavaScript. Note that the
+ execution of JavaScript is disabled by default in the SeaMonkey email
+ client, and enabling it is strongly discouraged.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ Users upgrading to the following release of SeaMonkey should note that
+ the corresponding Mozilla Firefox upgrade has been found to lose the
+ saved passwords file in some cases. The saved passwords are encrypted
+ and stored in the 'signons.txt' file of ~/.mozilla/ and we advise our
+ users to save that file before performing the upgrade.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-client/seamonkey-1.1.1&quot;</code>
+ <p>
+ All SeaMonkey binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-client/seamonkey-bin-1.1.1&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
