SeaMonkey is an open source Web browser, advanced email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor. Multiple flaws were found in the processing of malformed JavaScript content. A web page containing such malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2008-2801, CVE-2008-2802, CVE-2008-2803) Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2008-2798, CVE-2008-2799, CVE-2008-2811) Several flaws were found in the way malformed web content was displayed. A web page containing specially-crafted content could potentially trick a SeaMonkey user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-2800) Two local file disclosure flaws were found in SeaMonkey. A web page containing malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to reveal the contents of a local file to a remote attacker. (CVE-2008-2805, CVE-2008-2810) A flaw was found in the way a malformed .properties file was processed by SeaMonkey. A malicious extension could read uninitialized memory, possibly leaking sensitive data to the extension. (CVE-2008-2807) A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey escaped a listing of local file names. If a user could be tricked into listing a local directory containing malicious file names, arbitrary JavaScript could be run with the permissions of the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2008-2808) A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey displayed information about self-signed certificates. It was possible for a self-signed certificate to contain multiple alternate name entries, which were not all displayed to the user, allowing them to mistakenly extend trust to an unknown site. (CVE-2008-2809) All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues.
