Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Suite, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions, conduct cross-site scripting attacks and compromise a user's system.
1) An error where untrusted events generated by web content are delivered to the browser user interface has various impacts.
This is related to vulnerability #1 in:
SA14938
2) Scripts in XBL controls can be executed even when JavaScript has been disabled.
3) An error, where the callback function of the "InstallTrigger.install()" function is not properly cleared before navigating to a new site, can be exploited to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session in context of an arbitrary site.
4) An input validation error in the handling of unexpected JavaScript objects passed to the "InstallVersion.compareTo()" function may be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
5) An error in the handling of DOM node names with different namespaces can be exploited to execute arbitrary script code with escalated privileges via a specially crafted XHTML document.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
6) An error caused due to insecure cloning of base objects can be exploited to execute arbitrary script code with escalated privileges.
Solution:
Update to version 1.7.10.
