Description:
SUSE has issued an update for multiple packages. This fixes some vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious users to manipulate certain information and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), bypass certain security restrictions, to cause files to be extracted to arbitrary locations on a user's system, to trick users into visiting a malicious website by obfuscating URLs displayed in the status bar, and to compromise a user's system.
