could be stolen.
For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed
in version 1.9.0.15-0lenny1.
As indicated in the Etch release notes, security support for the
Mozilla products in the oldstable distribution needed to be stopped
before the end of the regular Etch security maintenance life cycle.
You are strongly encouraged to upgrade to stable or switch to a still
supported browser.
For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.1.4-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your xulrunner packages.
