3 vulnerabilities fixed in firefox 1.5.0.8 http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2006/mfsa2006-67.html Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory 2006-67 Title: Running Script can be recompiled Impact: Critical Announced: November 7, 2006 Reporter: shutdown Products: Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey Fixed in: Firefox 1.5.0.8 Thunderbird 1.5.0.8 SeaMonkey 1.0.6 Description shutdown demonstrated that it was possible to modify a Script object while it was executing, potentially leading to the execution of arbitrary JavaScript bytecode. Note: Thunderbird shares the browser engine with Firefox and could be vulnerable if JavaScript were to be enabled in mail. This is not the default setting and we strongly discourage users from enabling JavaScript in mail. Workaround Disable JavaScript until you can upgrade to a fixed version. Do not enable JavaScript in mail clients such as Thunderbird. http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2006/mfsa2006-66.html Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory 2006-66 Title: RSA Signature Forgery (variant) Impact: Critical Announced: November 7, 2006 Reporter: Ulrich Kuehn Products: Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey Fixed in: Firefox 1.5.0.8 Thunderbird 1.5.0.8 SeaMonkey 1.0.6 Description MFSA 2006-60 reported that RSA digital signatures with a low exponent (typically 3) could be forged. This flaw was corrected in the Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) library version 3.11.3 used by Firefox 2.0 and current development versions of Mozilla clients. Ulrich Kuehn reported that Firefox 1.5.0.7, which incorporated NSS version 3.10.2, was incompletely patched and remained vulnerable to a variant of this attack. Workaround None, upgrade to a fixed version. http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2006/mfsa2006-65.html Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory 2006-64 Title: Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.8.0.8) Impact: Critical Announced: November 7, 2006 Reporter: Mozilla Developers Products: Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey Fixed in: Firefox 1.5.0.8 Thunderbird 1.5.0.8 SeaMonkey 1.0.6 Description As part of the Firefox 1.5.0.8 release we fixed several bugs to improve the stability of the product. Some of these were crashes that showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code with enough effort. Note: Thunderbird shares the browser engine with Firefox and could be vulnerable if JavaScript were to be enabled in mail. This is not the default setting and we strongly discourage users from running JavaScript in mail. Without further investigation we cannot rule out the possibility that for some of these an attacker might be able to prepare memory for exploitation through some means other than JavaScript, such as large images or plugin data. Workaround Upgrade to the fixed versions. Do not enable JavaScript in Thunderbird or the mail portions of SeaMonkey.

Total agony is upon me once more.
at least this one is not relevant for gentoo: MFSA 2006-60 reported that RSA digital signatures with a low exponent (typically 3) could be forged. This flaw was corrected in the Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) library version 3.11.3 used by Firefox 2.0 and current development versions of Mozilla clients. Ulrich Kuehn reported that Firefox 1.5.0.7, which incorporated NSS version 3.10.2, was incompletely patched and remained vulnerable to a variant of this attack. Workaround None, upgrade to a fixed version. :)

*** Bug 154732 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Alpha doesn't have any 1.5 versions keyworded.
Stable for HPPA.
Redhatter has been made aware and states "Hrmm... I think I'll be doing the Firefox build on the octane." Once that is complete this bug is closed :)
This one is ready for GLSA.
Shouldn't we also include CVE-2006-5748 and CVE-2006-5747? They affect the same versions, and are related.
