Synopsis:	Critical: seamonkey security update
Issue date:	2011-03-01
CVE Names:	CVE-2011-0051 CVE-2011-0053 CVE-2011-0059

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled dialog boxes. An attacker
could use this flaw to create a malicious web page that would present a
blank dialog box that has non-functioning buttons. If a user closes the
dialog box window, it could unexpectedly grant the malicious web page
elevated privileges. (CVE-2011-0051)

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A 
web page containing malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user 
running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2011-0053)

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled plug-ins that perform HTTP
requests. If a plug-in performed an HTTP request, and the server sent a 
307 redirect response, the plug-in was not notified, and the HTTP 
request was forwarded. The forwarded request could contain custom 
headers, which could result in a Cross Site Request Forgery attack. 
(CVE-2011-0059)

After installing the update, SeaMonkey must be restarted for the changes 
to take effect.
