 DANISH PROBLEM watcher Secunia said that two "extremely critical" security problems have been discovered in ever-more popular browser, Firefox. According to Secunia, these involve cross scripting attacks involving IFRAME Javascript URLs and input passed to the IconURL parameter. The holes have been confirmed in version 1.0.3, and exploit code is publicly available, said Secunia, in its note, here.Source: The Inquirer --------------------    Things that I don't suck at: Photography (flickr, JPG Mag), "Don't bail; the best gold is at the bottom of barrels of crap!" -Randy Pausch I have people-skills goddamnit!

QUOTE(Paladin @ May 9 2005, 02:24 AM) no....not firefox..... :'(  Huh??? You thought it's the first bug found in FireFox? Here's one i recently heard of. It's not severe but is so fun & unique  QUOTE Listening to Amazon Audio Samples:
There's a bug in Firefox which means that it handles some files improperly, and deals with some files according to their extension rather than their MIME type. This rears its ugly head when trying to listen to audio samples on the Amazon website. Instead of passing the RealPlayer stub file to RealPlayer, it downloads it and names it hurl.exe. All you have to do to listen to the files is change the name from hurl.exe to hurl.ram and then open the newly-named file. |
