Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. The XBM decoder in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.17 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.12 allows remote attackers to read uninitialized memory, and possibly obtain sensitive information in opportunistic circumstances, via a crafted XBM image file.
