[slackware-security] Mozilla (SSA:2004-223-01)
New Mozilla packages are available for Slackware 9.1, 10.0, and
-current to fix a number of security issues. Slackware 10.0 and
-current were upgraded to Mozilla 1.7.2, and Slackware 9.1 was
upgraded to Mozilla 1.4.3. As usual, new versions of Mozilla
require new versions of things that link with the Mozilla
libraries, so for Slackware 10.0 and -current new versions of
epiphany, galeon, gaim, and mozilla-plugins have also been
provided. There don’t appear to be epiphany and galeon versions
that are compatible with Mozilla 1.4.3 and the GNOME in Slackware
9.1, so these are not provided and Epiphany and Galeon will be
broken on Slackware 9.1 if the new Mozilla package is installed.
Furthermore, earlier versions of Mozilla (such as the 1.3 series)
were not fixed upstream, so versions of Slackware earlier than 9.1
will remain vulnerable to these browser issues. If you still use
Slackware 9.0 or earlier, you may want to consider removing Mozilla
or upgrading to a newer version.

Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database:
