Fedora alert FEDORA-2008-6127 (kazehakase)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-6127 2008-07-06 04:44:59 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : kazehakase Product : Fedora 8 Version : 0.5.4 Release : 2.fc8.2 URL : http://kazehakase.sourceforge.jp/ Summary : Kazehakase browser using Gecko rendering engine Description : Kazehakase is a Web browser which aims to provide a user interface that is truly user-friendly & fully customizable. This package uses Gecko for HTML rendering engine. If you want to use WebKit for HTML rendering engine, install "kazehakase-webkit" rpm instead. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Updated firefox packages that fix several security issues are now available for Fedora 8. This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Fedora Security Response Team. Multiple flaws were found in the processing of malformed JavaScript content. A web page containing such malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-2801, CVE-2008-2802, CVE-2008-2803) Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-2798, CVE-2008-2799, CVE-2008-2811) Several flaws were found in the way malformed web content was displayed. A web page containing specially-crafted content could potentially trick a Firefox user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-2800) Two local file disclosure flaws were found in Firefox. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to reveal the contents of a local file to a remote attacker. (CVE-2008-2805, CVE-2008-2810) A flaw was found in the way a malformed .properties file was processed by Firefox. A malicious extension could read uninitialized memory, possibly leaking sensitive data to the extension. (CVE-2008-2807) A flaw was found in the way Firefox escaped a listing of local file names. If a user could be tricked into listing a local directory containing malicious file names, arbitrary JavaScript could be run with the permissions of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-2808) A flaw was found in the way Firefox displayed information about self-signed certificates. It was possible for a self-signed certificate to contain multiple alternate name entries, which were not all displayed to the user, allowing them to mistakenly extend trust to an unknown site. (CVE-2008-2809) Updated packages update Mozilla Firefox to upstream version 2.0.0.15 to address these flaws: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known- vulnerabilities.html#firefox2.0.0.15 This update also contains blam, chmsee, devhelp, epiphany, epiphany-extensions, galeon, gnome-python2-extras, gnome-web- photo, gtkmozembedmm, kazehakase, liferea, Miro, openvrml, ruby-gnome2 and yelp packages rebuilt against new Firefox / Gecko libraries. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jul 2 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 0.5.4-2.2 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Wed Apr 16 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 0.5.4-2.1 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Mon Apr 14 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.4-2 - Rebuild for new WebKit (F-7/8: bug 438531) * Sun Mar 30 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.4-1 - 0.5.4 * Fri Mar 28 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.3-6.svn3501_trunk - Try svn 3501 (still not work against xulrunner :( ) * Tue Mar 25 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 0.5.3-5 - Rebuild against newer gecko (F-7/8) * Wed Mar 5 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.3-4 - Create kazehakase-base, split gecko.so from -base package so that users can install only WebKit based package. * Sun Mar 2 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.3-3 - Support WebGTK * Sat Mar 1 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.3-1 - 0.5.3 * Fri Feb 29 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.2-8.svn3410_trunk - More try to use xulrunner * GRE version fix * Remove seemingly undesirable linking * Sun Feb 24 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.2-7.svn3391_trunk - More try to use xulrunner * Fix linkage for gecko.so * Don't use MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API anymore * NS_NewStorageStream should be changed to use xpcom http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Migrating_from_Inter... * Sat Feb 23 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.2-2.svn3391_trunk - F-9: Try latest svn for xulrunner * Fri Feb 15 2008 Mamoru Tasaka <mtasaka@ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> - 0.5.2-1.2.svn3358 - F-9: Try latest svn for xulrunner (Still build explicitly disabled.
