DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Firefox
and
Mozilla SeaMonkey, which can be exploited by malicious
people 
to
bypass certain security restrictions, conduct cross-site 
scripting
attacks, and potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

contains 
an
incomplete fix for the RSA signature verification
vulnerability
reported in MFSA 2006-60.

For more information:
SA21903

2) An error exists within the handling of Script objects.
This 
can
potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary JavaScript 
bytecode by
modifying already running Script objects.

3) Some unspecified errors in the layout engine and memory 
corruption
errors in the JavaScript engine can be exploited to crash
the
application and may allow execution of arbitrary code.

4) An unspecified error within XML.prototype.hasOwnProperty
can
potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code.

SOLUTION:
Update to Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.8 and SeaMonkey 1.0.6.
