A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-1208, CVE-2010-1209, CVE-2010-1211, CVE-2010-1212, CVE-2010-1214, CVE-2010-1215, CVE-2010-2752, CVE-2010-2753) A memory corruption flaw was found in the way Firefox decoded certain PNG images. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG image that, when opened, could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2010-1205) Several same-origin policy bypass flaws were found in Firefox. An attacker could create a malicious web page that, when viewed by a victim, could steal private data from a different website the victim has loaded with Firefox. (CVE-2010-0654, CVE-2010-1207, CVE-2010-1213, CVE-2010-2754) A flaw was found in the way Firefox presented the location bar to a user. A malicious website could trick a user into thinking they are visiting the site reported by the location bar, when the page is actually content controlled by an attacker. (CVE-2010-1206) A flaw was found in the way Firefox displayed the location bar when visiting a secure web page. A malicious server could use this flaw to present data that appears to originate from a secure server, even though it does not. (CVE-2010-2751) A flaw was found in the way Firefox displayed certain malformed characters. A malicious web page could use this flaw to bypass certain string sanitization methods, allowing it to display malicious information to users. (CVE-2010-1210) For technical details regarding these flaws, refer to the Mozilla security advisories for Firefox 3.6.7. After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
