SeaMonkey is an open source web browser, email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor.
A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled dialog boxes. An attacker could use this flaw to create a malicious web page that would present a blank dialog box that has non-functioning buttons. If a user closes the dialog box window, it could unexpectedly grant the malicious web page elevated privileges. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2011-0051 to this issue.
Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause SeaMonkey to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running SeaMonkey. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2011-0053 to this issue.
A flaw was found in the way SeaMonkey handled plug-ins that perform HTTP requests. If a plug-in performed an HTTP request, and the server sent a 307 redirect response, the plug-in was not notified, and the HTTP request was forwarded. The forwarded request could contain custom headers, which could result in a Cross Site Request Forgery attack. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2011-0059 to this issue.
