Following security issues were fixed: CVE-2009-4067: A USB string descriptor overflow in the auerwald USB driver was fixed, which could be used by physically proximate attackers to cause a kernel crash. CVE-2011-3363: Always check the path in CIFS mounts to avoid interesting filesystem path interaction issues and potential crashes. CVE-2011-3191: A malicious CIFS server could cause a integer overflow on the local machine on directory index operations, in turn causing memory corruption. CVE-2011-1776: The is_gpt_valid function in fs/partitions/efi.c in the Linux kernel did not check the size of an Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) GUID Partition Table (GPT) entry, which allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and OOPS) or obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by connecting a crafted GPT storage device, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1577. Following non-security issues were fixed: - md: fix deadlock in md/raid1 and md/raid10 when handling a read error (bnc#628343). - md: fix possible raid1/raid10 deadlock on read error during resync (bnc#628343). - Add timeo parameter to /proc/mounts for nfs filesystems (bnc#616256). - virtio: indirect ring entries (VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC) (bnc#713876). - virtio: teach virtio_has_feature() about transport features (bnc#713876). - nf_nat: do not add NAT extension for confirmed conntracks (bnc#709213). - 8250: Oxford Semiconductor Devices (bnc#717126). - 8250_pci: Add support for the Digi/IBM PCIe 2-port Adapter (bnc#717126). - 8250: Fix capabilities when changing the port type (bnc#717126). - 8250: Add EEH support (bnc#717126). - xfs: fix memory reclaim recursion deadlock on locked inode buffer (bnc#699355 bnc#699354 bnc#721830). - ipmi: do not grab locks in run-to-completion mode (bnc#717421). - cifs: add fallback in is_path_accessible for old servers (bnc#718028). - cciss: do not attempt to read from a write-only register (bnc#683101). - s390: kernel: System hang if hangcheck timer expires (bnc#712009, LTC#74157). - s390: kernel: NSS creation with initrd fails (bnc#712009,LTC#74207). - s390: kernel: remove code to handle topology interrupts (bnc#712009, LTC#74440). - xen: Added 1083-kbdfront-absolute-coordinates.patch (bnc#717585). - acpi: Use a spinlock instead of mutex to guard gbl_lock access (bnc#707439). - Allow balance_dirty_pages to help other filesystems (bnc#709369). - nfs: fix congestion control (bnc#709369). - NFS: Separate metadata and page cache revalidation mechanisms (bnc#709369). - jbd: Fix oops in journal_remove_journal_head() (bnc#694315). - xen/blkfront: avoid NULL de-reference in CDROM ioctl handling (bnc#701355). - xen/x86: replace order-based range checking of M2P table by linear one. - xen/x86: use dynamically adjusted upper bound for contiguous regions (bnc#635880). - Fix type in patches.fixes/libiscsi-dont-run-scsi-eh-if-iscsi-task-is-making-progress. - s390: cio: Add timeouts for internal IO (bnc#701550,LTC#72691). - s390: kernel: first time swap use results in heavy swapping (bnc#701550, LTC#73132). - s390: qeth: wrong number of output queues for HiperSockets (bnc#701550, LTC#73814). 2) Solution or Work-Around There is no known workaround, please install the update packages. 3) Special Instructions and Notes Please reboot the machine after installing the update. 4) Package Location and Checksums The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST "Online Update" module or the "zypper" commandline tool. The package and patch management stack will detect which updates are required and automatically perform the necessary steps to verify and install them. Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this announcement. Then install the packages using the command rpm -Fhv <file.rpm> to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the downloaded RPM package. Our maintenance customers are notified individually. The packages are offered for installation from the maintenance web: SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP4 for x86 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=6253a90635c740c154fb5e3cc… SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP4 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=be6b41cc85222e68513448b61… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=6253a90635c740c154fb5e3cc… SLE SDK 10 SP4 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=be6b41cc85222e68513448b61… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=c4377326fa8f6c8c833ef411e… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=169bd714365eb7c38e3854092… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=6253a90635c740c154fb5e3cc… SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP4 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=be6b41cc85222e68513448b61… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=b1201574824e860419470a1e9… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=c4377326fa8f6c8c833ef411e… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=169bd714365eb7c38e3854092… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=6253a90635c740c154fb5e3cc… SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP4 for AMD64 and Intel EM64T http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=be6b41cc85222e68513448b61… ______________________________________________________________________________ 5) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: none ______________________________________________________________________________ 6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information - Announcement authenticity verification: SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE security announcements are published with a valid signature. To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file and run the command gpg --verify <file> replacing <file> with the name of the file where you saved the announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like: gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9 gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security(a)suse.de>" where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed. If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the command gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc - Package authenticity verification: SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. The internal rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm> to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it contains a valid signature from build(a)suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA. This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at the end of this announcement. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: opensuse-security(a)opensuse.org - General Linux and SUSE security discussion. All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to <opensuse-security+subscribe(a)opensuse.org>. opensuse-security-announce(a)opensuse.org - SUSE's announce-only mailing list.

This flaw could be used by local users able to mount FUSE filesystems to crash the system. CVE-2011-2928: The befs_follow_link function in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the length attribute of long symlinks, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer dereference and OOPS) by accessing a long symlink on a malformed Be filesystem. Also the following non security bugs were fixed: - Added a missing reset for ioc_reset_in_progress in SoftReset in the mtpsas driver (bnc#711969). - Add support for the Digi/IBM PCIe 2-port Adapter (bnc#708675). - Always enable MSI-X on 5709 (bnc#707737). - sched: fix broken SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK handling (bnc#708877). - sched: Fix rt_rq runtime leakage bug (bnc#707096). - ACPI: allow passing down C1 information if no other C-states exist. - KDB: turn off kdb usb support by default (bnc#694670 bnc#603804). - xfs: Added event tracing support. - xfs: fix xfs_fsblock_t tracing. - igb: extend maximum frame size to receive VLAN tagged frames (bnc#688859). - cfq: Do not allow queue merges for queues that have no process references (bnc#712929). - cfq: break apart merged cfqqs if they stop cooperating (bnc#712929). - cfq: calculate the seek_mean per cfq_queue not per cfq_io_context (bnc#712929). - cfq: change the meaning of the cfqq_coop flag (bnc#712929). - cfq-iosched: get rid of the coop_preempt flag (bnc#712929). - cfq: merge cooperating cfq_queues (bnc#712929). - Fix FDDI and TR config checks in ipv4 arp and LLC (bnc#715235). - writeback: do uninterruptible sleep in balance_dirty_pages() (bnc#699354 bnc#699357). - xfs: fix memory reclaim recursion deadlock on locked inode buffer (bnc#699355 bnc#699354). - xfs: use GFP_NOFS for page cache allocation (bnc#699355 bnc#699354). - virtio-net: init link state correctly (bnc#714966). - cpufreq: pcc-cpufreq: sanity check to prevent a NULL pointer dereference (bnc#709412). - x86: ucode-amd: Do not warn when no ucode is available for a CPU - patches.arch/x86_64-unwind-annotations: Refresh (bnc#588458). - patches.suse/stack-unwind: Refresh (bnc#588458). - splice: direct_splice_actor() should not use pos in sd (bnc#715763). - qdio: 2nd stage retry on SIGA-W busy conditions (bnc#713138, LTC#74402). - TTY: pty, fix pty counting (bnc#711203). - Avoid deadlock in GFP_IO/GFP_FS allocation (bnc#632870). - novfs: fix some DirCache locking issues (bnc#669378). - novfs: fix some kmalloc/kfree issues (bnc#669378). - novfs: fix off-by-one allocation error (bnc#669378). - novfs: unlink directory after unmap (bnc#649625). - novfs: last modification time not reliable (bnc#642896). - x86 / IO APIC: Reset IRR in clear_IO_APIC_pin() (bnc#701686, bnc#667386). - mptfusion : Added check for SILI bit in READ_6 CDB for DATA UNDERRUN ERRATA (bnc #712456). - xfs: serialize unaligned direct IOs (bnc#707125). - NFS: Ensure that we handle NFS4ERR_STALE_STATEID correctly (bnc#701443). - NFSv4: Do not call nfs4_state_mark_reclaim_reboot() from error handlers (bnc#701443). - NFSv4: Fix open recovery (bnc#701443). - NFSv4.1: Do not call nfs4_schedule_state_recovery() unnecessarily (bnc#701443) 2) Solution or Work-Around There is no known workaround, please install the update packages. 3) Special Instructions and Notes Please reboot the machine after installing the update. 4) Package Location and Checksums The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST "Online Update" module or the "zypper" commandline tool. The package and patch management stack will detect which updates are required and automatically perform the necessary steps to verify and install them. Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this announcement. Then install the packages using the command rpm -Fhv <file.rpm> to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the downloaded RPM package. Our maintenance customers are notified individually. The packages are offered for installation from the maintenance web: SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension 11 SP1 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=20cb09e23614f5f5085f698cc… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=94fa14c210d027059a56ea1e3… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=9a7f6196af0af6d69bc4d0f12… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=959314df0926c9887f7057c56… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=56d0712d83970cf6fe7492bf3… SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 SP1 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=959314df0926c9887f7057c56… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=56d0712d83970cf6fe7492bf3… SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=20cb09e23614f5f5085f698cc… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=94fa14c210d027059a56ea1e3… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=9a7f6196af0af6d69bc4d0f12… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=959314df0926c9887f7057c56… http://download.novell.com/patch/finder/?keywords=56d0712d83970cf6fe7492bf3… ______________________________________________________________________________ 5) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: none ______________________________________________________________________________ 6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information - Announcement authenticity verification: SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE security announcements are published with a valid signature. To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file and run the command gpg --verify <file> replacing <file> with the name of the file where you saved the announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like: gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9 gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security(a)suse.de>" where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed. If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the command gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc - Package authenticity verification: SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. The internal rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm> to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it contains a valid signature from build(a)suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA. This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at the end of this announcement. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: opensuse-security(a)opensuse.org - General Linux and SUSE security discussion. All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to <opensuse-security+subscribe(a)opensuse.org>. opensuse-security-announce(a)opensuse.org - SUSE's announce-only mailing list.

Description: The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 1 kernel was updated to 2.6.32.46 and fixes various bugs and security issues. Following security issues were fixed: CVE-2011-3191: A signedness issue in CIFS could possibly have lead to to memory corruption, if a malicious server could send crafted replies to the host. CVE-2011-3353: In the fuse filesystem, FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY did not check the length of the write so the message processing could overrun and result in a BUG_ON() in fuse_copy_fill(). This flaw could be used by local users able to mount FUSE filesystems to crash the system. CVE-2011-2928: The befs_follow_link function in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the length attribute of long symlinks, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer dereference and OOPS) by accessing a long symlink on a malformed Be filesystem.

SUSE Security Update: Security update for Linux kernel ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2011:1100-1 Rating: important References: #588458 #603804 #632870 #642896 #649625 #650309 #667386 #669378 #688859 #694670 #699354 #699355 #699357 #701443 #701686 #704347 #706557 #707096 #707125 #707737 #708675 #708877 #709412 #711203 #711969 #712456 #712929 #713138 #713430 #714001 #714966 #715235 #715763 #716901 #719117 #719450 Cross-References: CVE-2011-2928 CVE-2011-3191 CVE-2011-3353 Affected Products: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 for VMware SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 SP1 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that solves three vulnerabilities and has 33 fixes is now available. It includes one version update. Description: The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 1 kernel was updated to 2.6.32.46 and fixes various bugs and security issues. Following security issues were fixed: CVE-2011-3191: A signedness issue in CIFS could possibly have lead to to memory corruption, if a malicious server could send crafted replies to the host. CVE-2011-3353: In the fuse filesystem, FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY did not check the length of the write so the message processing could overrun and result in a BUG_ON() in fuse_copy_fill(). This flaw could be used by local users able to mount FUSE filesystems to crash the system. CVE-2011-2928: The befs_follow_link function in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the length attribute of long symlinks, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer dereference and OOPS) by accessing a long symlink on a malformed Be filesystem. Also the following non security bugs were fixed: - CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP enabled - CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED disabled by default. Swap accounting can be turned on by swapaccount=1 kernel command line parameter (bnc#719450) - Make swap accounting default behavior configurable (bnc#719450, bnc#650309, fate#310471). * Added a missing reset for ioc_reset_in_progress in SoftReset in the mtpsas driver (bnc#711969). * Add support for the Digi/IBM PCIe 2-port Adapter (bnc#708675). * Always enable MSI-X on 5709 (bnc#707737). * sched: fix broken SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK handling (bnc#708877). * sched: Fix rt_rq runtime leakage bug (bnc#707096). * ACPI: allow passing down C1 information if no other C-states exist. * KDB: turn off kdb usb support by default (bnc#694670 bnc#603804). * xfs: Added event tracing support. * xfs: fix xfs_fsblock_t tracing. * igb: extend maximum frame size to receive VLAN tagged frames (bnc#688859). * cfq: Do not allow queue merges for queues that have no process references (bnc#712929). * cfq: break apart merged cfqqs if they stop cooperating (bnc#712929). * cfq: calculate the seek_mean per cfq_queue not per cfq_io_context (bnc#712929). * cfq: change the meaning of the cfqq_coop flag (bnc#712929). * cfq-iosched: get rid of the coop_preempt flag (bnc#712929). * cfq: merge cooperating cfq_queues (bnc#712929). * Fix FDDI and TR config checks in ipv4 arp and LLC (bnc#715235). * writeback: do uninterruptible sleep in balance_dirty_pages() (bnc#699354 bnc#699357). * xfs: fix memory reclaim recursion deadlock on locked inode buffer (bnc#699355 bnc#699354). * xfs: use GFP_NOFS for page cache allocation (bnc#699355 bnc#699354). * virtio-net: init link state correctly (bnc#714966). * cpufreq: pcc-cpufreq: sanity check to prevent a NULL pointer dereference (bnc#709412). * x86: ucode-amd: Do not warn when no ucode is available for a CPU * patches.arch/x86_64-unwind-annotations: Refresh (bnc#588458). * patches.suse/stack-unwind: Refresh (bnc#588458). * splice: direct_splice_actor() should not use pos in sd (bnc#715763). * qdio: 2nd stage retry on SIGA-W busy conditions (bnc#713138,LTC#74402). * TTY: pty, fix pty counting (bnc#711203). * Avoid deadlock in GFP_IO/GFP_FS allocation (bnc#632870). * novfs: fix some DirCache locking issues (bnc#669378). * novfs: fix some kmalloc/kfree issues (bnc#669378). * novfs: fix off-by-one allocation error (bnc#669378). * novfs: unlink directory after unmap (bnc#649625). * novfs: last modification time not reliable (bnc#642896). * x86 / IO APIC: Reset IRR in clear_IO_APIC_pin() (bnc#701686, bnc#667386). * mptfusion : Added check for SILI bit in READ_6 CDB for DATA UNDERRUN ERRATA (bnc #712456). * xfs: serialise unaligned direct IOs (bnc#707125). * NFS: Ensure that we handle NFS4ERR_STALE_STATEID correctly (bnc#701443). * NFSv4: Do not call nfs4_state_mark_reclaim_reboot() from error handlers (bnc#701443). * NFSv4: Fix open recovery (bnc#701443). * NFSv4.1: Do not call nfs4_schedule_state_recovery() unnecessarily (bnc#701443).

[security-announce] SUSE-SU-2011:1096-1: important: Security update for Mozilla Firefox
by opensuse-security＠opensuse.org 05 Oct '11

SUSE Security Update: Security update for Mozilla Firefox ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2011:1096-1 Rating: important References: #720264 Affected Products: SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 for VMware SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP4 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP3 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP4 SLE SDK 10 SP4 SLE SDK 10 SP3 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that contains security fixes can now be installed. It includes two new package versions. Description: Mozilla Firefox was updated to version 3.6.23, fixing various bugs and security issues. * MFSA 2011-36: Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled,, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. * Benjamin Smedberg, Bob Clary, and Jesse Ruderman reported memory safety problems that affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 6. (CVE-2011-2995) * Josh Aas reported a potential crash in the plugin API that affected Firefox 3.6 only. (CVE-2011-2996) * MFSA 2011-37: Mark Kaplan reported a potentially exploitable crash due to integer underflow when using a large JavaScript RegExp expression. We would also like to thank Mark for contributing the fix for this problem. (no CVE yet) * MFSA 2011-38: Mozilla developer Boris Zbarsky reported that a frame named "location" could shadow the window.location object unless a script in a page grabbed a reference to the true object before the frame was created. Because some plugins use the value of window.location to determine the page origin this could fool the plugin into granting the plugin content access to another site or the local file system in violation of the Same Origin Policy. This flaw allows circumvention of the fix added for MFSA 2010-10. (CVE-2011-2999) * MFSA 2011-39: Ian Graham of Citrix Online reported that when multiple Location headers were present in a redirect response Mozilla behavior differed from other browsers: Mozilla would use the second Location header while Chrome and Internet Explorer would use the first. Two copies of this header with different values could be a symptom of a CRLF injection attack against a vulnerable server. Most commonly it is the Location header itself that is vulnerable to the response splitting and therefore the copy preferred by Mozilla is more likely to be the malicious one. It is possible, however, that the first copy was the injected one depending on the nature of the server vulnerability. The Mozilla browser engine has been changed to treat two copies of this header with different values as an error condition. The same has been done with the headers Content-Length and Content-Disposition. (CVE-2011-3000) * MFSA 2011-40: Mariusz Mlynski reported that if you could convince a user to hold down the Enter key--as part of a game or test, perhaps--a malicious page could pop up a download dialog where the held key would then activate the default Open action. For some file types this would be merely annoying (the equivalent of a pop-up) but other file types have powerful scripting capabilities. And this would provide an avenue for an attacker to exploit a vulnerability in applications not normally exposed to potentially hostile internet content.

openSUSE Security Update: MozillaThunderbird: Update to Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1.14 ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2011:1076-2 Rating: important References: #720264 Affected Products: openSUSE 11.4 openSUSE 11.3 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that contains security fixes can now be installed. It includes two new package versions. Description: Mozilla Thunderbird was updated to version 3.1.14, fixing various bugs and security issues. MFSA 2011-36: Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. Benjamin Smedberg, Bob Clary, and Jesse Ruderman reported memory safety problems that affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 6. (CVE-2011-2995) Bob Clary, Andrew McCreight, Andreas Gal, Gary Kwong, Igor Bukanov, Jason Orendorff, Jesse Ruderman, and Marcia Knous reported memory safety problems that affected Firefox 6, fixed in Firefox 7. (CVE-2011-2997) MFSA 2011-38: Mozilla developer Boris Zbarsky reported that a frame named "location" could shadow the window.location object unless a script in a page grabbed a reference to the true object before the frame was created. Because some plugins use the value of window.location to determine the page origin this could fool the plugin into granting the plugin content access to another site or the local file system in violation of the Same Origin Policy. This flaw allows circumvention of the fix added for MFSA 2010-10. (CVE-2011-2999) MFSA 2011-39: Ian Graham of Citrix Online reported that when multiple Location headers were present in a redirect response Mozilla behavior differed from other browsers: Mozilla would use the second Location header while Chrome and Internet Explorer would use the first. Two copies of this header with different values could be a symptom of a CRLF injection attack against a vulnerable server. Most commonly it is the Location header itself that is vulnerable to the response splitting and therefore the copy preferred by Mozilla is more likely to be the malicious one. It is possible, however, that the first copy was the injected one depending on the nature of the server vulnerability. The Mozilla browser engine has been changed to treat two copies of this header with different values as an error condition. The same has been done with the headers Content-Length and Content-Disposition. (CVE-2011-3000) MFSA 2011-40: Mariusz Mlynski reported that if you could convince a user to hold down the Enter key--as part of a game or test, perhaps--a malicious page could pop up a download dialog where the held key would then activate the default Open action. For some file types this would be merely annoying (the equivalent of a pop-up) but other file types have powerful scripting capabilities. And this would provide an avenue for an attacker to exploit a vulnerability in applications not normally exposed to potentially hostile internet content. Mariusz also reported a similar flaw with manual plugin installation using the PLUGINSPAGE attribute. It was possible to create an internal error that suppressed a confirmation dialog, such that holding enter would lead to the installation of an arbitrary add-on. (This variant did not affect Firefox 3.6) Holding enter allows arbitrary code execution due to Download Manager (CVE-2011-2372) Holding enter allows arbitrary extension installation (CVE-2011-3001) MFSA 2011-42: Security researcher Aki Helin reported a potentially exploitable crash in the YARR regular expression library used by JavaScript. (CVE-2011-3232) MFSA 2011-44: sczimmer reported that Firefox crashed when loading a particular .ogg file. This was due to a use-after-free condition and could potentially be exploited to install malware. (CVE-2011-3005) This vulnerability does not affect Firefox 3.6 or earlier.
