Flaw reported in updated Firefox
Vulnerability researcher Ronald van den Heetkamp published a directory traversal flaw in Firefox version 2.0.0.12 on Friday, hours after the release of the latest version of the browser.
A directory traversal flaw enables an attacker to potentially access another user's remote files due to insufficient security validation. The alleged flaw found by van den Heetkamp makes use of the Firefox "view-source:" feature.

(Sorry, link doesn't work. It must be a bug in Dell's forum software.)Reply
