Synopsis:    Important: seamonkey security update
Issue Date:  2011-08-31


SeaMonkey is an open source web browser, email and newsgroup client, IRC
chat client, and HTML editor.

It was found that a Certificate Authority (CA) issued a fraudulent HTTPS
certificate. This update renders any HTTPS certificates signed by that
CA as untrusted, except for a select few. The now untrusted certificates
that were issued before July 1, 2011 can be manually re-enabled and used
again at your own risk in SeaMonkey; however, affected certificates 
issued after this date cannot be re-enabled or used.

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