Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.58163
Category:Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2007-085-01)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'mozilla-firefox' package(s) announced via the SSA:2007-085-01 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'mozilla-firefox' package(s) announced via the SSA:2007-085-01 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
New mozilla-firefox packages are available for Slackware 10.2, 11.0,
and -current to fix security issues.

Note that firefox-1.5.x will reach end-of-life next month, so upgrading
to the 2.x branch soon is probably a good idea.

- From [link moved to references]
'Note: Firefox 1.5.0.x will be maintained with security and stability
updates until April 24, 2007. All users are encouraged to upgrade
to Firefox 2.'

Since Slackware packages the official Firefox binaries, the Firefox 2
packages in Slackware 11.0 and -current should run on many earlier
Slackware versions as well, though there are some known problems with
plugins (such as gxine).


Here are the details from the Slackware 11.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
xap/mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.10-i686-1.tgz:
Upgraded to firefox-1.5.0.10.
This upgrade fixes several possible security bugs.

(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+

Affected Software/OS:
'mozilla-firefox' package(s) on Slackware 10.2, Slackware 11.0, Slackware current.
