Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xulrunner, a
runtime environment for XUL applications, such as the Iceweasel web
browser. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
the following problems:

CVE-2009-1571

Alin Rad Pop discovered that incorrect memory handling in the
HTML parser could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2009-3988

Hidetake Jo discovered that the same-origin policy can be
bypassed through window.dialogArguments.

CVE-2010-0159

Henri Sivonen, Boris Zbarsky, Zack Weinberg, Bob Clary, Martijn
Wargers and Paul Nickerson reported crashes in layout engine,
which might allow the execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2010-0160

Orlando Barrera II discovered that incorrect memory handling in the
implementation of the web worker API could lead to the execution
of arbitrary code.

CVE-2010-0162

Georgi Guninski discovered that the same origin policy can be
bypassed through specially crafted SVG documents.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.0.18-1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.1.8-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your xulrunner packages.
