CNet: Attention Firefox Users – You Need This Update
The vulnerability, uncovered a month ago, could allow an attacker to crash a person’s browser and run harmful code on their machine.
Mozilla released Firefox 3.6.2 late Monday to fix a critical security hole involving Web-based font technology.
“‘We strongly recommend that all Firefox users upgrade to this latest release. If you already have Firefox 3.6 you will receive an automated update notification within 24 to 48 hours. This update can also be applied manually by selecting ‘Check for Updates…’ from the Help menu,’ said Mozilla’s director of Firefox, Mike Beltzner, a blog post.”
