SeaMonkey < 2.10.0 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 59411

Synopsis

The remote Windows host contains a web browser that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The installed version of SeaMonkey is earlier than 2.10.0. Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

- An error exists in the ASN.1 decoder when handling zero length items that can lead to application crashes.
(CVE-2012-0441)

- Multiple memory corruption errors exist. (CVE-2012-1937, CVE-2012-1938)

- Two heap-based buffer overflows and one heap-based use- after-free error exist and are potentially exploitable.
(CVE-2012-1940, CVE-2012-1941, CVE-2012-1947)

- Two arbitrary DLL load issues exist related to the application update and update service functionality.
(CVE-2012-1942, CVE-2012-1943)

- The inline-script blocking feature of the 'Content Security Policy' (CSP) does not properly block inline event handlers. This error allows remote attackers to more easily carry out cross-site scripting attacks.
(CVE-2012-1944)

- A use-after-free error exists related to replacing or inserting a node into a web document. (CVE-2012-1946)

- An error exists related to the certificate warning page that can allow 'clickjacking' thereby tricking a user into accepting unintended certificates. (CVE-2012-1964)

Solution

Upgrade to SeaMonkey 2.10.0 or later.
