Critical: seamonkey security update

Updated seamonkey packages that fix two security issues are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, and 4.

This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.

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

A memory corruption flaw was discovered in the way SeaMonkey handles XML
files containing an XSLT transform. A remote attacker could use this flaw
to crash SeaMonkey or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user
running SeaMonkey. (CVE-2009-1169)

A flaw was discovered in the way SeaMonkey handles certain XUL garbage
collection events. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash SeaMonkey
or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running SeaMonkey.
(CVE-2009-1044)

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

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
