Firefox 1.0.4 Release Candidate Patches Bugs

Publication:Information WeekDate:May 12 2005

The Mozilla Foundation posted a release candidate late Tuesday of a security update to Firefox that patches a pair of vulnerabilities leaked last weekend.

The Windows, Mac, and Linux versions of Firefox 1.0.4 can be downloaded from the Firefox FTP server.

Like the three previous updates released this year, 1.0.4 is a bug fix, in this case one that plugs a cross-scripting vulnerability which could let an attacker gain control of a Firefox-equipped computer if its user simply surfs to a malicious site.
