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-2008-0412

Nickerson discovered crashes in the layout engine, which might allow
the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2008-0413
Carsten Book, Wesley Garland, Igor Bukanov, "moz_bug_r_a4", "shutdown",
Philip Taylor and "tgirmann" discovered crashes in the Javascript
engine, which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2008-0414
"hong" and Gregory Fleisher discovered that file input focus
vulnerabilities in the file upload control could allow information
disclosure of local files.
CVE-2008-0415
"moz_bug_r_a4" and Boris Zbarsky discovered discovered several
vulnerabilities in Javascript handling, which could allow
privilege escalation.
CVE-2008-0417
Justin Dolske discovered that the password storage machanism could
be abused by malicious web sites to corrupt existing saved passwords.
CVE-2008-0418
Gerry Eisenhaur and "moz_bug_r_a4" discovered that a directory
traversal vulnerability in chrome: URI handling could lead to
information disclosure.
CVE-2008-0419
David Bloom discovered a race condition in the image handling of
designMode elements, which can lead to information disclosure or
potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2008-0591
Michal Zalewski discovered that timers protecting security-sensitive
dialogs (which disable dialog elements until a timeout is reached)
could be bypassed by window focus changes through Javascript.
CVE-2008-0592
It was discovered that malformed content declarations of saved
attachments could prevent a user in the opening local files
with a ".txt" file name, resulting in minor denial of service.
CVE-2008-0593
Martin Straka discovered that insecure stylesheet handling during
redirects could lead to information disclosure.
CVE-2008-0594
Emil Ljungdahl and Lars-Olof Moilanen discovered that phishing
protections could be bypassed with <div> elements.
