An update that contains security fixes can now be
installed. It includes two new package versions.
Description:
MozillaFirefox was updated to the 10.0.10ESR security
release.
The following issues have been fixed:
*
MFSA 2012-90: Mozilla has fixed a number of issues
related to the Location object in order to enhance overall
security. Details for each of the current fixed issues are
below.
Thunderbird is only affected by window.location
issues through RSS feeds and extensions that load web
content.
*
CVE-2012-4194: Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski
reported that the true value of window.location could be
shadowed by user content through the use of the valueOf
method, which can be combined with some plugins to perform
a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack on users.
*
CVE-2012-4195: Mozilla security researcher
moz_bug_r_a4 discovered that the CheckURL function in
window.location can be forced to return the wrong calling
document and principal, allowing a cross-site scripting
(XSS) attack. There is also the possibility of gaining
arbitrary code execution if the attacker can take advantage
of an add-on that interacts with the page content.
*
CVE-2012-4196: Security researcher Antoine
Delignat-Lavaud of the PROSECCO research team at INRIA
Paris reported the ability to use property injection by
prototype to bypass security wrapper protections on the
Location object, allowing the cross-origin reading of the
Location object.
