Mozilla Makes Firefox Security Advisory
Two potential JavaScript exploits have been reported to Mozilla, and active exploit code may exist.
Proof of concept was enough for the Mozilla Foundation to issue an advisory to the Internet community yesterday.
In a press release, Mozilla recommends temporarily disabling JavaScript in the Firefox browser until a fix is available.
The Secunia security web site, which monitors browser vulnerabilities, notes the vulnerabilities leave Firefox open to cross-site scripting attacks. That exploit could lead to the execution of arbitrary code by a remote user.
Pending a software fix, Firefox users should disable JavaScript and disable software installation where web sites are allowed to install software.
