Update Information:

Updated firefox and xulrunner packages that fix various security issues are now
available for Fedora Core 9.    This update has been rated as having critical
security impact by the Fedora Security Response Team.    Mozilla Firefox is an
open source Web browser.    Several flaws were found in the processing of
malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause
Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running
Firefox. (CVE-2008-0017, CVE-2008-5014, CVE-2008-5016, CVE-2008-5017,
CVE-2008-5018, CVE-2008-5019, CVE-2008-5021)    Several flaws were found in the
way malformed content was processed. A web site containing specially-crafted
content could potentially trick a Firefox user into surrendering sensitive
information. (CVE-2008-5022, CVE-2008-5023, CVE-2008-5024)    A flaw was found
in the way Firefox opened "file:" URIs. If a file: URI was loaded in the same
tab as a chrome or privileged "about:" page, the file: URI could execute
arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-5015)
For technical details regarding these flaws, please see the Mozilla security
advisories for Firefox 3.0.4[1].    All firefox users and users of packages
depending on xulrunner[2] should upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain patches that correct these issues.    [1]

ChangeLog:

- Rebuild against gecko-libs 1.9.0.4 (#464205)
* Fri Aug 22 2008 Michel Alexandre Salim <salimma at fedoraproject.org> - 1.2.6-3
- Do not create backup files when patching; the backup files get re-added during the build process
* Fri Aug 22 2008 Michel Salim <salimma at fedoraproject.org> - 1.2.6-2
- Unapply boost patch; boost-1.36 has been backed out for F10

- Rebuild for xulrunner-1.9.0.1
- Unfortunately we probably need to make this an exact match because
  Miro uses the unstable API, so a rebuild may need to be done on every
  package update to be sure that it will work with new xulrunner updates

- Rebuild for xulrunner-1.9 final.
* Sun Jun 15 2008 Alex Lancaster <alexlan[AT]fedoraproject org> - 1.2.4-1
