" If a Firefox user simply views a maliciously coded XML file on a website, in a style of attack known as a drive-by download, the exploit installs unwelcome software onto the victim's machine.
The drive-by download affects Firefox running on all platforms, including Mac OS and Linux, according to Mozilla developer notes" "This makes the second big exploit of Firefox in a week," Tyler Reguly, senior security research engineer at nCircle, told SCMagazineUS.com on Thursday. "And it's the fifth bug in a popular browser over the last week-and-a-half." http://www.scmagazineus.com/High-priority-Firefox-patch-being-readied/article/129518/ This post was edited by NotParkerToo on Friday, April 24, 2009 at 15:54. |

#25 & 26
According to the bugzilla link you provided this has been fixed? |

| #27: You must be new here. That's what parkkker does. He talks about Firefox bugs that have already been fixed. He must love Firefox's security and he's proud to list bugs that have already been squashed. |

The point is that FF is vulnerable to drive-by installs. This particular bug may have been addressed but to suggest that there are no other holes is nonsense.

| #29: Who said that? I said that the only instance of drive-by d/ls with FF were due to explicit bugs, where IE does it as a point of functionality. |
