Synopsis
========

Several vulnerabilities in Mozilla Suite allow attacks ranging from
script execution with elevated privileges to information leaks.

Background
==========

The Mozilla Suite is a popular all-in-one web browser that includes a
mail and news reader.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package                 /  Vulnerable  /               Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  www-client/mozilla          < 1.7.13                    >= 1.7.13
  2  www-client/mozilla-bin      < 1.7.13                    >= 1.7.13
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

Description
===========

Several vulnerabilities were found in Mozilla Suite. Version 1.7.13 was
released to fix them.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could craft malicious web pages or emails that would
leverage these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with
elevated privileges, steal local files, cookies or other information
from web pages or emails, and spoof content. Some of these
vulnerabilities might even be exploited to execute arbitrary code with
the rights of the user running the client.

Workaround
==========

There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Mozilla Suite users should upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-1.7.13"

All Mozilla Suite binary users should upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-bin-1.7.13"
