SUSE Security Update: Security update for MozillaFirefox ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2014:1112-2 Rating: important References: #894370 Affected Products: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 LTSS ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that contains security fixes can now be installed. It includes three new package versions. Description: Mozilla Firefox was updated to the 24.8.0ESR release, fixing security issues and bugs. Only some of the published security advisories affect the Mozilla Firefox 24ESR codestream: * MFSA 2014-72 / CVE-2014-1567: Security researcher regenrecht reported, via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative, a use-after-free during text layout when interacting with the setting of text direction. This results in a use-after-free which can lead to arbitrary code execution. * MFSA 2014-67: Mozilla developers and community 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. * Jan de Mooij reported a memory safety problem that affects Firefox ESR 24.7, ESR 31 and Firefox 31. (CVE-2014-1562) More information is referenced on: https://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/ https://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/ .
