Firefox Critical Updates
August 4th, 2009
Mozilla has released a critical update patch for Firefox 3.5.x today.
“We strongly recommend that all Firefox users upgrade to this latest release,” Mozilla said in a blog posting about the security issue.
The first vulnerability could let an attacker run arbitrary code on a person’s computer by sending specially crafted authentication information called certificate.
The second vulnerability, disclosed last week, involves a flaw in certificate authentication technology that could potentially let an attacker gain access to encrypted information or issue a bogus update to Firefox.
