Linux-Mandrake Security Update Advisory
Package name: netscape
Date: December 14th, 2000
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2000:080
Affected versions: 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2
Problem Description:
A buffer overflow exists in the HTML parser code of the Netscape
web browser in all versions prior to and including 4.75. This
buffer overflow can be exploited by a remote attacker or web
site.
Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the
integrity of the downloaded package. You can do this with the
command:
rpm --checksig package.rpm
You can get the GPG public key of the Linux-Mandrake Security Team
at http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS
If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and
GPG signature is performed automatically for you.

To upgrade automatically, use
<<MandrakeUpdate>>.
If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package
from one of our FTP server mirrors and uprade with "rpm -Uvh
package_name".
You can download the updates directly from:
ftp://ftp.linux.tucows.com/pub/distributions/Mandrake/Mandrake/updates
ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrake/updates
Or try one of the other mirrors listed at:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3.
Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/"
directory. For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM
package for Linux-Mandrake 7.1, look for it in "updates/7.1/RPMS/".
Updated source RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not
need to download them.
Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours
to update, so if you want an immediate upgrade, please use one of
the two above-listed mirrors.
