Critical Firefox security flaw discovered
Tuesday, July 10, 2007 by Philly0381 | Discussion: Personal Computing
I personally don't use Firefox but I thought enough about you folks that do to post this link. The article doesn't say anything about a patch. Does Firefox take care of patches with updates (what a dumb question)?

Mozilla Firefox Multiple Popup Tabs Denial of Service Vulnerability
Firefox is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability.
An attacker may exploit this issue by enticing victims into opening a maliciously crafted HTML document.
Successful exploits can allow attackers to crash the affected browser, resulting in denial-of-service conditions.
Firefox 2.0.0.4 is vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected.
