New Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.5

firefox

Firefox browser has been updated to 2.0.0.5 two days ago. If you are using any version lower than that, you really should update yourself to that. I have bad experience of delaying an application update, and that really cost me something, so be quick or be ready to fix.

Here’s what’s new in terms of security in Firefox 2.0.0.5

  • XPCNativeWrapper pollution
  • Unauthorized access to wyciwyg:// documents
  • Remote code execution by launching Firefox from Internet Explorer
  • File type confusion due to %00 in name
  • Privilege escallation using an event handler attached to an element not in the document
  • Frame spoofing while window is loading
  • XSS using addEventListener and setTimeout
  • Crashes with evidence of memory corruption
