The Mozilla Suite is a popular all-in-one web browser that includes a mail and news reader.
Several vulnerabilities were found in Mozilla Suite. Version 1.7.13 was released to fix them.
A remote attacker could craft malicious web pages or emails that would leverage these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with elevated privileges, steal local files, cookies or other information from web pages or emails, and spoof content. Some of these vulnerabilities might even be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the client.
There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time.
All Mozilla Suite users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-1.7.13"
All Mozilla Suite binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/mozilla-bin-1.7.13"
