3. Description:
Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser. XULRunner provides the XUL
Runtime environment for Mozilla Firefox.
The RHSA-2011:1242 Firefox update rendered HTTPS certificates signed by a
certain Certificate Authority (CA) as untrusted, but made an exception for
a select few. This update removes that exception, rendering every HTTPS
certificate signed by that CA as untrusted. (BZ#735483)
All Firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
Firefox version 3.6.22. After installing the update, Firefox must be
restarted for the changes to take effect.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
735483 - Additional certificates signed by DigiNotar CA certificate to be revoked (MFSA 2011-35)
