Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2005:323 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Critical: mozilla security update 2005-03-23 05:00:00 UTC

Description Josh Bressers 2005-03-18 16:48:32 UTC
Mozilla allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash
from null dereference or infinite loop) via a web page that contains a (1)
TEXTAREA, (2) INPUT, (3) FRAMESET or (4) IMG tag followed by a null character
and some trailing characters, as demonstrated by mangleme.
