Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory
Synopsis: New Netscape packages available
Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:109-04
Issue date: 2000-11-17
Updated on: 2000-11-17
Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: netscape HTML buffer overflow
Cross references: N/A
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
New Netscape packages are available that fix a buffer overflow
in parsing HTML.
It is recommended that all Netscape users update to the fixed
packages.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 6.0 - i386, alpha, sparc
Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386, alpha, sparc
Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386, alpha, sparc
Red Hat Linux 7.0 - i386
3. Problem description:
A buffer overflow exists in Netscape's HTML parsing code. By
using specially designed code, a remote website could cause
arbitrary code to be run on the local machine.
4. Solution:
For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filename]
where filename is the name of the RPM.
5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):
20415 - Netscape segfault - cured in 4.76
20462 - Netscape 4.75 buffer overflow
