Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Iceweasel web
browser, an unbranded version of the Firefox browser. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:
CVE-2007-1362

Wargers and Olli Pettay discovered crashes in the layout engine, which
might allow the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-2868
Brendan Eich, Igor Bukanov, Jesse Ruderman, moz_bug_r_a4 and Wladimir Palant
discovered crashes in the javascript engine, which might allow the execution of
arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-2869
"Marcel" discovered that malicous web sites can cause massive
ressource comsumption through the auto completion feature, resulting
in denial of service.
CVE-2007-2870
"moz_bug_r_a4" discovered that adding an event listener through the
addEventListener() function allows cross-site scripting.
CVE-2007-2871
Chris Thomas discovered that XUL popups can can be abused for spoofing or
phishing attacks.
Fixes for the oldstable distribution (sarge) are not available. While there
will be another round of security updates for Mozilla products, Debian doesn't
have the ressources to backport further security fixes to the old Mozilla
products. You're strongly encouraged to upgrade to stable as soon as possible.
For the stable distribution (etch) these problems have been fixed in version
2.0.0.4-0etch1. A build for the Alpha architecture is not yet available, it will
be provided later.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version
2.0.0.4-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your iceweasel packages.
