  <summary>mozilla-xulrunner192: Update to 1.9.2.17 security release</summary>
  <description>Mozilla XULRunner 1.9.2 was updated to the 1.9.2.17
security release.

MFSA 2011-12: Mozilla developers identified and fixed
several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in
Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these
bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain
circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at
least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary
code. Credits

Mozilla developer Scoobidiver reported a memory safety
issue which affected Firefox 4 and Firefox 3.6
(CVE-2011-0081)

The web development team of Alcidion reported a crash that
affected Firefox 4, Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5.
(CVE-2011-0069)

Ian Beer reported a crash that affected Firefox 4, Firefox
3.6 and Firefox 3.5. (CVE-2011-0070)

Mozilla developers Bob Clary, Henri Sivonen, Marco Bonardo,
Mats Palmgren and Jesse Ruderman reported memory safety
issues which affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5.
(CVE-2011-0080)

Aki Helin reported memory safety issues which affected
Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5. (CVE-2011-0074 , CVE-2011-0075)

Ian Beer reported memory safety issues which affected
Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5. (CVE-2011-0077 , CVE-2011-0078)

Martin Barbella reported a memory safety issue which
affected Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 3.5. (CVE-2011-0072)

MFSA 2011-13 / CVE-2011-0065 / CVE-2011-0066 /
CVE-2011-0073: Security researcher regenrecht reported
several dangling pointer vulnerabilities via TippingPoint's
Zero Day Initiative.

MFSA 2011-14 / CVE-2011-0067: Security researcher Paul
Stone reported that a Java applet could be used to mimic
interaction with form autocomplete controls and steal
entries from the form history.

MFSA 2011-15 / CVE-2011-0076: David Remahl of Apple Product
Security reported that the Java Embedding Plugin (JEP)
shipped with the Mac OS X versions of Firefox could be
exploited to obtain elevated access to resources on a
user's system.

MFSA 2011-16 / CVE-2011-0071: Security researcher Soroush
Dalili reported that the resource: protocol could be
exploited to allow directory traversal on Windows and the
potential loading of resources from non-permitted
locations. The impact would depend on whether interesting
files existed in predictable locations in a useful format.
For example, the existence or non-existence of particular
images might indicate whether certain software was
installed.

MFSA 2011-18 / CVE-2011-1202: Chris Evans of the Chrome
Security Team reported that the XSLT generate-id() function
returned a string that revealed a specific valid address of
an object on the memory heap. It is possible that in some
cases this address would be valuable information that could
be used by an attacker while exploiting a different memory
corruption but, in order to make an exploit more reliable
or work around mitigation features in the browser or
operating system.
