업데이트 : Mozilla Firefox 53.0

반응형

모질라(Mozilla) 재단에서 제공하는 오픈 소스 기반 Mozilla Firefox 웹 브라우저가 새로운 기능 추가, 버그(Bug) 수정 및 39건의 다중 보안 취약점 문제를 해결한 Mozilla Firefox 53.0 정식 버전을 업데이트 하였습니다.

 

 

  • Improved graphics stability for Windows users with the addition of compositor process separation (Quantum Compositor).
  • Two new 'compact' themes available in Firefox, dark and light, based on the Firefox Developer Edition theme.
  • Lightweight themes are now applied in private browsing windows.
  • Reader Mode now displays estimated reading time for the page.
  • Windows 7+ users on 64-bit OS can select 32-bit or 64-bit versions in the stub installer.

 

이번 Mozilla Firefox 53 버전에서는 Windows 운영 체제 사용자를 위한 더욱 빠르고 안정적인 성능 향상을 위한 Quantum 프로젝트의 일환으로 테마와 사이트의 허용 권한 등에 대한 새로운 디자인을 적용하였습니다.

 

 

 

기본 테마 외에 Compact Dark, Compact Light 테마가 추가되었으며, 해당 테마는 사생활 보호 창에서도 적용됩니다.

 

 

또한 Mozilla Firefox 웹 브라우저 설치 파일(Firefox Setup Stub)을 이용한 설치 과정에서 32비트 또는 64비트 버전을 선택할 수 있습니다.

 

그 외 세부적인 수정 사항은 Mozilla Firefox 53.0 Release Note 내용을 참고하시기 바랍니다.

 

보안 취약점 관련 업데이트에서는 Critical 등급(8건), High 등급(20건), Moderate 등급(7건), Low 등급(4건)에 대한 보안 패치가 포함되어 있습니다.

 

참고로 Mozilla Firefox 53 버전부터는 이미 지원이 종료된 Windows XP, Windows Vista 운영 체제에 대한 모든 지원이 종료됨에 따라 더 이상 설치할 수 없게 되었습니다.

 

그러므로 기존의 Mozilla Firefox 52 버전 사용자 중 Windows XP, Windows Vista 운영 체제 환경에서는 자동으로 Mozilla Firefox ESR 버전으로 업데이트가 이루어지며, 중요 Firefox 보안 패치에 대해서만 지속적으로 제공받을 수 있습니다.

 

Critical 등급

 

(1) CVE-2017-5429 : Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 53, Firefox ESR 45.9, and Firefox ESR 52.1

 

Mozilla developers and community members Christian Holler, Jon Coppeard, Marcia Knous, David Baron, Mats Palmgren, Ronald Crane, Bob Clary, and Chris Peterson reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 52, Firefox ESR 45.8, and Firefox ESR 52. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code.

(4) CVE-2017-5451 : Addressbar spoofing with onblur event

 

A mechanism to spoof the addressbar through the user interaction on the addressbar and the onblur event. The event could be used by script to affect text display to make the loaded site appear to be different from the one actually loaded within the addressbar.

 

(5) CVE-2017-5462 : DRBG flaw in NSS

 

A flaw in DRBG number generation within the Network Security Services (NSS) library where the internal state V does not correctly carry bits over. The NSS library has been updated to fix this issue to address this issue and Firefox 53 has been updated with NSS version 3.29.5.

 

(6) CVE-2017-5463 : Addressbar spoofing through reader view on Firefox for Android

 

Android intents can be used to launch Firefox for Android in reader mode with a user specified URL. This allows an attacker to spoof the contents of the addressbar as displayed to users.

(2) CVE-2017-5453 : HTML injection into RSS Reader feed preview page through TITLE element

 

A mechanism to inject static HTML into the RSS reader preview page due to a failure to escape characters sent as URL parameters for a feed's TITLE element. This vulnerability allows for spoofing but no scripted content can be run.

 

(3) CVE-2017-5458 : Drag and drop of javascript: URLs can allow for self-XSS

 

When a javascript: URL is drag and dropped by a user into the addressbar, the URL will be processed and executed. This allows for users to be socially engineered to execute an XSS attack on themselves.
