Category:Red Hat Local Security Checks
Title:RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2011:1244
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory RHSA-2011:1244.

SeaMonkey is an open source web browser, email and newsgroup client, IRC
chat client, and HTML editor.

It was found that a Certificate Authority (CA) issued a fraudulent HTTPS
certificate. This update renders any HTTPS certificates signed by that
CA as untrusted, except for a select few. The now untrusted certificates
that were issued before July 1, 2011 can be manually re-enabled and used
again at your own risk in SeaMonkey
however, affected certificates issued
after this date cannot be re-enabled or used. (BZ#734316)

All SeaMonkey users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct
this issue. After installing the update, SeaMonkey must be restarted for
the changes to take effect.

Solution:
Please note that this update is available via
Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red
Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date
