InfoSec Handlers Diary Blog

New versions of FIrefox 2 & 3 were released this evening.  Firefox 2.0.0.18 fixes 11 security vulnerabilities 6 of them critical including 2 remote code executions.  Firefox 3.0.4 fixes 9 security vulnerabilities, 4 of them critical including remote code execution.  As we've mentioned before, the Mozilla folks recommend that folks still running FF2 upgrade to FF3 as soon as possible.  Also, they have released Seamonkey 1.1.13 which fixes the same 11 security vulnerabilities as FF 2.0.0.18.
