SeaMonkey < 2.13.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 62592

Synopsis

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

Description

The installed version of SeaMonkey is earlier than 2.13.1. As such, it is potentially affected by the following security issues :

- An unspecified error related to the WebSockets implementation and the function 'mozilla::net::FailDelayManager::Lookup' could allow application crashes and potentially, arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-4191)

- An unspecified error exists that could allow attackers to bypass the 'Same Origin Policy' and access the 'Location' object. (CVE-2012-4192)

- An error exists related to 'security wrappers' and the function 'defaultValue()' that could allow cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2012-4193)

Solution

Upgrade to SeaMonkey 2.13.1 or later.
