Firefox 3 Vulnerability Reported
FSecure via Tipping point had reported a zero day vulnerability in latest version of Firefox 3 and earlier versions of Firefox are also affected. The technical details of the vulnerability and how it works has not been disclosed until the patch is made availble. They have reported this issue to the Security team of Mozilla.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. Not unlike most browser based vulnerabilities that we see these days, user interaction is required such as clicking on a link in email or visiting a malicious web page.
TippingPoint hasn’t revealed any technical details of the vulnerability. They will not do so until a patch is available. The vulnerability requires some user interaction such as clicking on an e-mail link or visiting a malicious page.
So all you can do is :
- Make sure you are browsing safe and not moving to every other crap site in internet.
- Secondly keep your Firefox Update Button on. So as soon as the patch is released you are prompted for it.
