chat client, and HTML editor.

A memory corruption flaw was discovered in the way SeaMonkey handles XML
files containing an XSLT transform. A remote attacker could use this flaw
to crash SeaMonkey or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user
running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2009-1169)

A flaw was discovered in the way SeaMonkey handles certain XUL garbage

All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct
these issues. After installing the update, SeaMonkey must be restarted for
the changes to take effect.
