Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.1-4
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

It's that time of the year (month?) again:

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#firefox1.5.0.2

MFSA 2006-29  Spoofing with translucent windows
MFSA 2006-28 Security check of js_ValueToFunctionObject() can be circumvented
MFSA 2006-25 Privilege escalation through Print Preview
MFSA 2006-24 Privilege escalation using crypto.generateCRMFRequest
MFSA 2006-23 File stealing by changing input type
MFSA 2006-22 CSS Letter-Spacing Heap Overflow Vulnerability
MFSA 2006-20 Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.8.0.2)

Some of those look pretty serious, esp. 2006-23 which I would consider 
critical. I didn't examine properly the 
others, that one was enough to trigger this report IMO. This also affects 
sarge, i think, since 1.0.8 is also 
affected.

Thank you for your work,

A.
