rendering services for several other applications included in Debian.
The reported vulnerabilities could lead to the execution of arbitrary
code or the bypass of content-loading restrictions via the location
object.
For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in
version 3.5.16-18.
For the testing distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in

We recommend that you upgrade your iceweasel packages.
