Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'firefox, xulrunner-1.9.2' package(s) announced via the USN-1210-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Benjamin Smedberg, Bob Clary, Jesse Ruderman, and Josh Aas discovered
multiple memory vulnerabilities in the browser rendering engine. An
attacker could use these to possibly execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2011-2995, CVE-2011-2996)

Boris Zbarsky discovered that a frame named 'location' could shadow the
window.location object unless a script in a page grabbed a reference to the
true object before the frame was created. This is in violation of the Same
Origin Policy. A malicious website could possibly use this to access
another website or the local file system. (CVE-2011-2999)

Mark Kaplan discovered an integer underflow in the SpiderMonkey JavaScript
engine. An attacker could potentially use this to crash Firefox.

Ian Graham discovered that when multiple Location headers were present,
Firefox would use the second one resulting in a possible CRLF injection
attack. CRLF injection issues can result in a wide variety of attacks, such
as XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) vulnerabilities, browser cache poisoning, and
cookie theft. (CVE-2011-3000)

Mariusz Mlynski discovered that if the user could be convinced to hold down
the enter key, a malicious website could potential pop up a download dialog
and the default open action would be selected. This would result in
potentially malicious content being run with privileges of the user
invoking Firefox. (CVE-2011-2372)

Affected Software/OS:
'firefox, xulrunner-1.9.2' package(s) on Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 10.10.
