VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39001/
DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla SeaMonkey, which
can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive
information or potentially compromise a user's system.
1) An error exists when processing "<iframe>" elements embedded in
e-mail messages. This can be exploited to disclose message contents
or local files by tricking a user into replying to or forwarding a
malicious message.
2) An error when joined to an Active Directory server on Vista or
Windows 7 can be exploited to cause a crash or potentially execute
arbitrary code if SSPI authentication is used.
3) An error when indexing certain messages with attachments can be
exploited to cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.
4) An unspecified error in the JavaScript engine can be exploited to
cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.
5) An error in the BinHex decoder when used on non-Mac platforms can
be exploited to cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.
Vulnerabilities #4 and #5 are related to vulnerability #1 in:
SA36671
6) An integer overflow error in a base64 decoding function can be
exploited to cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.
This is related to vulnerability #2 in:
SA35914
7) A use-after-free error in the implementation of the XUL tree
element can be exploited to potentially execute arbitrary code.
This is related to vulnerability #3 in:
SA36671
8) An error in the implementation of the NTLM authentication protocol
can be exploited to reflect the user's NTLM credentials to an
arbitrary application.
This is related to vulnerability #5 in:
SA37699
9) An array indexing error when processing floating point numbers can
be exploited to potentially execute arbitrary code.
This is related to vulnerability #1 in:
SA36711
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.1.19.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.19.
SeaMonkey 1.x has reached End Of Life. The vendor recommends an
upgrade to the latest 2.x version.
