IDG News Service - Mozilla developers are scrambling to fix a new Firefox browser bug being used by criminals to install malicious software on victims' computers. The flaw was uncovered Tuesday by security vendor Norman, which said that it learned of the bug after analyzing attack code surreptitiously installed on the Nobel Peace Prize website. "If a user visited the Nobel Prize site while the attack was active early Tuesday using Firefox 3.5 or 3.6, the malware might be installed on the user's computer without warning," Norman said in a press release. http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9193200/Mozilla_warns_of_unpatched_Firefox_flaw_used_in_attacks?source=rss_applications |
