Ubuntu-Description: Notes: jdstrand> CVEs in Firefox are tracked in the xulrunner source packages. The mapping of xulrunner sources to firefox is: xulrunner (1.8.0): firefox (1.5) - Ubuntu 6.06 LTS xulrunner (1.8.1): firefox (2.0) - Ubuntu 6.10 - 8.04 LTS xulrunner-1.9: firefox-3.0 xulrunner-1.9.1: firefox-3.5 jdstrand> Ubuntu 6.06 LTS and 10.04 LTS uses the embedded xulrunner and not the system xulrunner-1.9.2, so it is tracked in the firefox source package. jdstrand> ignoring until upstream fixes this since a malicious website can achieve the same 'exploit' via other means Bugs: Priority: negligible Discovered-by: Assigned-to: CVSS: Patches_firefox: upstream_firefox: needs-triage dapper_firefox: ignored (reached end-of-life) hardy_firefox: ignored (uses system xulrunner) jaunty_firefox: DNE karmic_firefox: DNE lucid_firefox: ignored devel_firefox: ignored Patches_xulrunner: upstream_xulrunner: needs-triage dapper_xulrunner: DNE hardy_xulrunner: ignored jaunty_xulrunner: ignored karmic_xulrunner: ignored lucid_xulrunner: DNE devel_xulrunner: DNE Patches_xulrunner-1.9: upstream_xulrunner-1.9: needs-triage dapper_xulrunner-1.9: DNE hardy_xulrunner-1.9: ignored jaunty_xulrunner-1.9: ignored karmic_xulrunner-1.9: DNE lucid_xulrunner-1.9: DNE devel_xulrunner-1.9: DNE Patches_xulrunner-1.9.1: upstream_xulrunner-1.9.1: needs-triage dapper_xulrunner-1.9.1: DNE hardy_xulrunner-1.9.1: DNE jaunty_xulrunner-1.9.1: ignored karmic_xulrunner-1.9.1: ignored lucid_xulrunner-1.9.1: DNE devel_xulrunner-1.9.1: DNE Patches_xulrunner-1.9.2: upstream_xulrunner-1.9.2: needs-triage dapper_xulrunner-1.9.2: DNE hardy_xulrunner-1.9.2: ignored jaunty_xulrunner-1.9.2: needs-triage karmic_xulrunner-1.9.2: needs-triage lucid_xulrunner-1.9.2: ignored devel_xulrunner-1.9.2: ignored
