Mozilla Firefox is the next-generation web browser from the Mozilla project.
A number of vulnerabilities were found and fixed in Mozilla Firefox. For details please consult the references below.
By enticing the user to visit a malicious website, a remote attacker can inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript Code into the user's browser, execute JavaScript code with elevated privileges and possibly execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All Mozilla Firefox users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.4"
All Mozilla Firefox binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-1.5.0.4"
Note: There is no stable fixed version for the Alpha architecture yet. Users of Mozilla Firefox on Alpha should consider unmerging it until such a version is available.
