==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Firefox.

Software Description:
- firefox: Mozilla Open Source web browser

Details:

It was discovered that the browser engine used in Firefox contained a
memory corruption flaw. If a user were tricked into opening a specially
crafted web page, a remote attacker could cause Firefox to crash or
potentially execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the program.
(CVE-2012-4191)

It was discovered that Firefox allowed improper access to the Location
object. An attacker could exploit this to obtain sensitive information.
(CVE-2012-4192)
