Test Kennung:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51396
Kategorie:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Titel:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:568
Zusammenfassung:NOSUMMARY
Beschreibung:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2003:568.

Mozilla is an open-source web browser designed for standards
compliance, performance and portability.

This update addresses several vulnerabilities found after the mozilla
1.0rc2 release, wich was the last version sent as an official
update[1] for Conectiva Linux distributions. A complete list of such
vulnerabilities can be obtained in [2,3], and details about the most
known ones in [5,6,7,8,9].

A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by creating
malicious web pages that, when acessed, would crash the browser,
potentially allow remote arbitrary code execution or cause some sort
of unexpected behavior.

The packages from this update are of Mozilla 1.2.1, which is the
latest stable release[10] from mozilla.org and includes fixes for the
known vulnerabilities. Besides the security fixes, it also includes
several new features and other minor corrections.

The vulnerabilities aforementioned also affect the Galeon web
browser, which uses the Mozilla engine. Galeon is being updated to
the version 1.2.7 in Conectiva Linux 8, but not in Conectiva Linux
6.0 and 7.0. The Galeon version distributed in these versions of
Conectiva Linux was in its early stages of development and would not
work with the new Mozilla packages. A new version of Galeon for these
distributions would need many other updated packages and therefore
will not be provided.


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
