Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

Updated SeaMonkey packages that fix several security bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.

This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

SeaMonkey is an open source Web browser, advanced email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor.

Several flaws were found in the way SeaMonkey processed certain JavaScript actions. A malicious web page could execute arbitrary JavaScript instructions with the permissions of 'chrome', allowing the page to steal sensitive information or install browser malware. (CVE-2006-3807, CVE-2006-3809, CVE-2006-3812)

Several denial of service flaws were found in the way SeaMonkey processed certain web content. A malicious web page could crash the browser or possibly execute arbitrary code as the user running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2006-3801, CVE-2006-3677, CVE-2006-3113, CVE-2006-3803, CVE-2006-3805, CVE-2006-3806, CVE-2006-3811)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey Messenger displayed malformed inline vcard attachments. If a victim viewed an email message containing a carefully crafted vcard, it was possible to execute arbitrary code as the user running SeaMonkey Messenger. (CVE-2006-3804)

Several flaws were found in the way SeaMonkey processed certain JavaScript actions. A malicious web page could conduct a cross-site scripting attack or steal sensitive information (such as cookies owned by other domains). (CVE-2006-3802, CVE-2006-3810)

A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey processed Proxy AutoConfig scripts. A malicious Proxy AutoConfig server could execute arbitrary JavaScript instructions with the permissions of 'chrome', allowing the page to steal sensitive information or install browser malware. (CVE-2006-3808)

Users of SeaMonkey are advised to upgrade to this update, which contains SeaMonkey version 1.0.3 that corrects these issues.

Solution

Update the affected packages.

Public Exploits


Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (Metasploit Framework, Exploit-DB)
Exploit Ease: Exploits are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the RHEL 3 : seamonkey (RHSA-2006:0608) vulnerability:

  1. Metasploit: exploit/multi/browser/mozilla_navigatorjava
    [Mozilla Suite/Firefox Navigator Object Code Execution]
  2. Exploit-DB: exploits/multiple/remote/2082.html
    [EDB-2082: Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.4 - JavaScript Navigator Object Code Execution]
  3. Exploit-DB: exploits/multiple/remote/9946.rb
    [EDB-9946: Mozilla Suite/Firefox < 1.5.0.5 - Navigator Object Code Execution (Metasploit)]
  4. Exploit-DB: exploits/multiple/remote/16300.rb
    [EDB-16300: Mozilla Suite/Firefox - Navigator Object Code Execution (Metasploit)]

Before running any exploit against any system, make sure you are authorized by the owner of the target system(s) to perform such activity. In any other case, this would be considered as an illegal activity.

WARNING: Beware of using unverified exploits from sources such as GitHub or Exploit-DB. These exploits and PoCs could contain malware. For more information, see how to use exploits safely.

How to Run


Here is how to run the RHEL 3 : seamonkey (RHSA-2006:0608) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

  1. Click to start a New Scan.
  2. Select Advanced Scan.
  3. Navigate to the Plugins tab.
  4. On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
  5. On the left side table select Red Hat Local Security Checks plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select RHEL 3 : seamonkey (RHSA-2006:0608) plugin ID 22114.
  7. Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
  8. Run the scan.

Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.

Basic usage:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl redhat-RHSA-2006-0608.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a redhat-RHSA-2006-0608.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - redhat-RHSA-2006-0608.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state redhat-RHSA-2006-0608.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
