2022-07-31 21:21:06 Jeremy Bícha description I'm filing this placeholder bug for the epiphany security issues. I am not currently working on this bug. https://discourse.gnome.org/t/epiphany-cve-2021-45085-cve-2021-45086-cve-2021-45087-cve-2021-45088/8367 Impact ------ Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities were fixed in December 2021. (Sorry for the delay.) https://discourse.gnome.org/t/epiphany-cve-2021-45085-cve-2021-45086-cve-2021-45087-cve-2021-45088/8367 Testing Done ------------ I completed a build and install test. After installing, I was able to watch a video on YouTube (I needed to install gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad first). I was able to use Reader Mode on a blog site. And I was able to load https://ubuntu.com/ normally. I was unable to get the POC at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1612 to work for me on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Other Info ---------- I cherry-picked the December 2021 commits from https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/commits/gnome-3-36 I skipped the "Disable Reader Mode" and "Revert Disable Reader Mode" commits since they cancel each other out. There are some interesting translation and bugfix commits after 3.36.4 before the December commits. I didn't initially include them since they aren't needed for this security fix. But I can include them if you want. I also cherry-picked the (required) February 2022 build fix commit. Official backports were not provided for anything older than Epiphany 3.36 so I was unable to prepare a fix for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ("Bionic"). That release isn't getting webkit2gtk security fixes either. I'm also including the fix for LP: #1969851 Sponsoring ---------- I am attaching a debdiff. Alternatively you could build from our VCS: gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/epiphany-browser git checkout ubuntu/focal gbp buildpackage --git-builder="debuild -S -nc" That will create the source package you can upload to your PPA
