This is interesting, but I'd like to see more details before deciding to dump FF.

The information on this exploit is fairly scant. How is it triggered? Just by visiting a page? Is Javascript involved? Etc...

Your link and the secunia dot com link only mention FF ver 3.6 as vulnerable.

Yes, that should be a mitigating factor for some people.BuzzKiller wrote:Your link and the secunia dot com link only mention FF ver 3.6 as vulnerable.
From the Mozilla blog:
To clarify, as originally claimed this issue affects Firefox 3.6 only and not any earlier versions. Thunderbird and SeaMonkey are based on earlier versions of the browser engine and are not affected.
