The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200805-18 (Mozilla products: Multiple vulnerabilities)

The following vulnerabilities were reported in all mentioned Mozilla     products:
Jesse Ruderman, Kai Engert, Martijn Wargers, Mats Palmgren, and Paul     Nickerson reported browser crashes related to JavaScript methods,     possibly triggering memory corruption (CVE-2008-0412).
Carsten Book, Wesley Garland, Igor Bukanov, moz_bug_r_a4, shutdown,     Philip Taylor, and tgirmann reported crashes in the JavaScript engine,     possibly triggering memory corruption (CVE-2008-0413).
David Bloom discovered a vulnerability in the way images are treated by     the browser when a user leaves a page, possibly triggering memory     corruption (CVE-2008-0419).
moz_bug_r_a4, Boris Zbarsky, and Johnny Stenback reported a series of     privilege escalation vulnerabilities related to JavaScript     (CVE-2008-1233, CVE-2008-1234, CVE-2008-1235).
Mozilla developers identified browser crashes caused by the layout and     JavaScript engines, possibly triggering memory corruption     (CVE-2008-1236, CVE-2008-1237).
moz_bug_r_a4 and Boris Zbarsky discovered that pages could escape from     its sandboxed context and run with chrome privileges, and inject script     content into another site, violating the browser's same origin policy     (CVE-2008-0415).
Gerry Eisenhaur discovered a directory traversal vulnerability when     using 'flat' addons (CVE-2008-0418).
Alexey Proskuryakov, Yosuke Hasegawa and Simon Montagu reported     multiple character handling flaws related to the backspace character,     the '0x80' character, involving zero-length non-ASCII sequences in     multiple character sets, that could facilitate Cross-Site Scripting     attacks (CVE-2008-0416).
The following vulnerability was reported in Thunderbird and SeaMonkey:
regenrecht (via iDefense) reported a heap-based buffer overflow when     rendering an email message with an external MIME body (CVE-2008-0304).
The following vulnerabilities were reported in Firefox, SeaMonkey and     XULRunner:
The fix for CVE-2008-1237 in Firefox 2.0.0.13     and SeaMonkey 1.1.9 introduced a new crash vulnerability     (CVE-2008-1380).
hong and Gregory Fleischer each reported a     variant on earlier reported bugs regarding focus shifting in file input     controls (CVE-2008-0414).
Gynvael Coldwind (Vexillium) discovered that BMP images could be used     to reveal uninitialized memory, and that this data could be extracted     using a 'canvas' feature (CVE-2008-0420).
Chris Thomas reported that background tabs could create a borderless     XUL pop-up in front of pages in other tabs (CVE-2008-1241).
oo.rio.oo discovered that a plain text file with a     'Content-Disposition: attachment' prevents Firefox from rendering     future plain text files within the browser (CVE-2008-0592).
Martin Straka reported that the '.href' property of stylesheet DOM     nodes is modified to the final URI of a 302 redirect, bypassing the     same origin policy (CVE-2008-0593).
Gregory Fleischer discovered that under certain circumstances, leading     characters from the hostname part of the 'Referer:' HTTP header are     removed (CVE-2008-1238).
Peter Brodersen and Alexander Klink reported that the browser     automatically selected and sent a client certificate when SSL Client     Authentication is requested by a server (CVE-2007-4879).
Gregory Fleischer reported that web content fetched via the 'jar:'     protocol was not subject to network access restrictions     (CVE-2008-1240).
The following vulnerabilities were reported in Firefox:
Justin Dolske discovered a CRLF injection vulnerability when storing     passwords (CVE-2008-0417).
Michal Zalewski discovered that Firefox does not properly manage a     delay timer used in confirmation dialogs (CVE-2008-0591).
Emil Ljungdahl and Lars-Olof Moilanen discovered that a web forgery     warning dialog is not displayed if the entire contents of a web page     are in a DIV tag that uses absolute positioning (CVE-2008-0594).

Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web     page or email that will trigger one of the vulnerabilities, possibly     leading to the execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service. It     is also possible for an attacker to trick a user to upload arbitrary     files when submitting a form, to corrupt saved passwords for other     sites, to steal login credentials, or to conduct Cross-Site Scripting     and Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
