SUSE Security Update: Security update for Mozilla Firefox ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2012:1167-1 Rating: important References: #684069 #769762 #777588 Cross-References: CVE-2012-1956 CVE-2012-1970 CVE-2012-1971 CVE-2012-1972 CVE-2012-1973 CVE-2012-1974 CVE-2012-1975 CVE-2012-1976 CVE-2012-3956 CVE-2012-3957 CVE-2012-3958 CVE-2012-3959 CVE-2012-3960 CVE-2012-3961 CVE-2012-3962 CVE-2012-3963 CVE-2012-3964 CVE-2012-3965 CVE-2012-3966 CVE-2012-3967 CVE-2012-3968 CVE-2012-3969 CVE-2012-3970 CVE-2012-3971 CVE-2012-3972 CVE-2012-3973 CVE-2012-3974 CVE-2012-3975 CVE-2012-3976 CVE-2012-3978 CVE-2012-3979 CVE-2012-3980 Affected Products: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP4 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP4 SLE SDK 10 SP4 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that fixes 32 vulnerabilities is now available. It includes three new package versions. Description: MozillaFirefox was updated to 10.0.7ESR release, fixing a lot of bugs and security problems. The following security issues have been addressed: * MFSA 2012-57: 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. * CVE-2012-1971: Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, Steve Fink, Bob Clary, Andrew Sutherland, and Jason Smith reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox 14. * CVE-2012-1970: Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, John Schoenick, Vladimir Vukicevic and Daniel Holbert reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox ESR 10 and Firefox 14. * MFSA 2012-58: Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno) of Google Chrome Security Team discovered a series of use-after-free issues using the Address Sanitizer tool. Many of these issues are potentially exploitable, allowing for remote code execution. o Heap-use-after-free in nsHTMLEditor::CollapseAdjacentTextNodes CVE-2012-1972 o Heap-use-after-free in nsObjectLoadingContent::LoadObject CVE-2012-1973 o Heap-use-after-free in gfxTextRun::CanBreakLineBefore CVE-2012-1974 o Heap-use-after-free in PresShell::CompleteMove CVE-2012-1975 o Heap-use-after-free in nsHTMLSelectElement::SubmitNamesValues CVE-2012-1976 o Heap-use-after-free in MediaStreamGraphThreadRunnable::Run() CVE-2012-3956 o Heap-buffer-overflow in nsBlockFrame::MarkLineDirty CVE-2012-3957 o Heap-use-after-free in nsHTMLEditRules::DeleteNonTableElements CVE-2012-3958 o Heap-use-after-free in nsRangeUpdater::SelAdjDeleteNode CVE-2012-3959 o Heap-use-after-free in mozSpellChecker::SetCurrentDictionary CVE-2012-3960 o Heap-use-after-free in RangeData::~RangeData CVE-2012-3961 o Bad iterator in text runs CVE-2012-3962 o use after free in js::gc::MapAllocToTraceKind CVE-2012-3963 o Heap-use-after-free READ 8 in gfxTextRun::GetUserData CVE-2012-3964 * MFSA 2012-59 / CVE-2012-1956: Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported that it is possible to shadow the location object using Object.defineProperty. This could be used to confuse the current location to plugins, allowing for possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. * MFSA 2012-60 / CVE-2012-3965: Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported that when a page opens a new tab, a subsequent window can then be opened that can be navigated to about:newtab, a chrome privileged page. Once about:newtab is loaded, the special context can potentially be used to escalate privilege, allowing for arbitrary code execution on the local system in a maliciously crafted attack. * MFSA 2012-61 / CVE-2012-3966: Security researcher Frederic Hoguin reported two related issues with the decoding of bitmap (.BMP) format images embedded in icon (.ICO) format files. When processing a negative "height" header value for the bitmap image, a memory corruption can be induced, allowing an attacker to write random memory and cause a crash. This crash may be potentially exploitable. * MFSA 2012-62: Security researcher miaubiz used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover two WebGL issues. The first issue is a use-after-free when WebGL shaders are called after being destroyed. The second issue exposes a problem with Mesa drivers on Linux, leading to a potentially exploitable crash. o use after free, webgl fragment shader deleted by accessor CVE-2012-3968 o stack scribbling with 4-byte values choosable among a few values, when using more than 16 sampler uniforms, on Mesa, with all drivers CVE-2012-3967 * MFSA 2012-63: Security researcher Arthur Gerkis used the Address Sanitizer tool to find two issues involving Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files. The first issue is a buffer overflow in Gecko's SVG filter code when the sum of two values is too large to be stored as a signed 32-bit integer, causing the function to write past the end of an array. The second issue is a use-after-free when an element with a "requiredFeatures" attribute is moved between documents. In that situation, the internal representation of the "requiredFeatures" value could be freed prematurely. Both issues are potentially exploitable. o Heap-buffer-overflow in nsSVGFEMorphologyElement::Filter CVE-2012-3969 o Heap-use-after-free in nsTArray_base::Length() CVE-2012-3970 * MFSA 2012-64 / CVE-2012-3971: Using the Address Sanitizer tool, Mozilla security researcher Christoph Diehl discovered two memory corruption issues involving the Graphite 2 library used in Mozilla products. Both of these issues can cause a potentially exploitable crash. These problems were fixed in the Graphite 2 library, which has been updated for Mozilla products. * MFSA 2012-65 / CVE-2012-3972: Security research Nicolas Gregoire used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover an out-of-bounds read in the format-number feature of XSLT, which can cause inaccurate formatting of numbers and information leakage. This is not directly exploitable. * MFSA 2012-66 / CVE-2012-3973: Mozilla security researcher Mark Goodwin discovered an issue with the Firefox developer tools' debugger. If remote debugging is disabled, but the experimental HTTPMonitor extension has been installed and enabled, a remote user can connect to and use the remote debugging service through the port used by HTTPMonitor. A remote-enabled flag has been added to resolve this problem and close the port unless debugging is explicitly enabled. * MFSA 2012-67 / CVE-2012-3974: Security researcher Masato Kinugawa reported that if a crafted executable is placed in the root partition on a Windows file system, the Firefox and Thunderbird installer will launch this program after a standard installation instead of Firefox or Thunderbird, running this program with the user's privileges. * MFSA 2012-68 / CVE-2012-3975: Security researcher vsemozhetbyt reported that when the DOMParser is used to parse text/html data in a Firefox extension, linked resources within this HTML data will be loaded. If the data being parsed in the extension is untrusted, it could lead to information leakage and can potentially be combined with other attacks to become exploitable. * MFSA 2012-69 / CVE-2012-3976: Security researcher Mark Poticha reported an issue where incorrect SSL certificate information can be displayed on the addressbar, showing the SSL data for a previous site while another has been loaded. This is caused by two onLocationChange events being fired out of the expected order, leading to the displayed certificate data to not be updated. This can be used for phishing attacks by allowing the user to input form or other data on a newer, attacking, site while the credentials of an older site appear on the addressbar. * MFSA 2012-70 / CVE-2012-3978: Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that certain security checks in the location object can be bypassed if chrome code is called content in a specific manner. This allowed for the loading of restricted content. This can be combined with other issues to become potentially exploitable. * MFSA 2012-71 / CVE-2012-3979: Mozilla developer Blake Kaplan reported that __android_log_print is called insecurely in places. If a malicious web page used a dump() statement with a specially crafted string, it can trigger a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability only affects Firefox for Android. * MFSA 2012-72 / CVE-2012-3980: Security researcher Colby Russell discovered that eval in the web console can execute injected code with chrome privileges, leading to the running of malicious code in a privileged context. This allows for arbitrary code execution through a malicious web page if the web console is invoked by the user.
