Firefox Mozilla 3.5 Critical bug fixed!
A Bug which was reported as critical has been fixed by mozilla in the latest version of firefox 3.5.1 download.The new version has fixed the security problem, improving stability, and speeding launch time on some Windows systems.
“Firefox 3.5 embodies Mozilla’s hope to build a better foundation for Web applications, but about two weeks after its debut, a vulnerability in the browser’s JavaScript engine came to light. Mozilla rated it “critical” because an attacker could create a Web site that would run malicious code on the computer.” [CNET]
The security hole in Mozilla 3.5 could have given essential controls to some malicious websites and through which they could have run a code[possibly a virus or a Trojan] though Mozilla on the host machine. [This looks quite similar to the security update that Microsoft fixed in internet explorer days before].
Moreover people were experiencing problems with the tab switching in windows , hope this issue has been fixed in the latest version.
