Ubuntu Security Notice USN-626-2            August 04, 2008
devhelp, epiphany-browser, midbrowser, yelp update
https://launchpad.net/bugs/253462
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
  devhelp                         0.19-1ubuntu1.8.04.3
  epiphany-gecko                  2.22.2-0ubuntu0.8.04.5
  midbrowser                      0.3.0rc1a-1~8.04.2
  yelp                            2.22.1-0ubuntu2.8.04.2

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart Devhelp, Epiphany,
Midbrowser and Yelp to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

USN-626-1 fixed vulnerabilities in xulrunner-1.9. The changes required
that Devhelp, Epiphany, Midbrowser and Yelp also be updated to use the
new xulrunner-1.9.

Original advisory details:

 A flaw was discovered in the browser engine. A variable could be made to
 overflow causing the browser to crash. If a user were tricked into opening
 a malicious web page, an attacker could cause a denial of service or
 possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking
 the program. (CVE-2008-2785)
 
 Billy Rios discovered that Firefox and xulrunner, as used by browsers
 such as Epiphany, did not properly perform URI splitting with pipe
 symbols when passed a command-line URI. If Firefox or xulrunner were
 passed a malicious URL, an attacker may be able to execute local
 content with chrome privileges. (CVE-2008-2933)
