Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-032 - Security issues were identified and fixed in mozilla firefox and thunderbird. Security researchers Blair Strang and Scott Bell of Security Assessment found that when a parent window spawns and closes a child window that uses the file open dialog, a crash can be induced in shlwapi.dll on 32-bit Windows 7 systems. Security researcher Soroush Dalili reported a way to bypass this protection. Security researcher Atte Kettunen from OUSPG found two issues with Firefox's handling of SVG using the Address Sanitizer tool. Various other issues were also addressed.
