Mozilla Firefox 1.0.7 DoS Exploit
An anonymous reader writes "Whitedust Security are reporting on a new exploit for Firefox which apparently affects all versions of the browser from 1.0.7 down. From the article: "If this exploit has made it out into, or indeed been retrieved from the wild is unknown at this time. However it is clear that this exploit will indeed need patching as soon as possible.""
Because you're a giant shithole. How's that for an explanation, you fucking generalizing prick?
You would think Slashdot, as a bastion of open source software enthusiasts, would do something about the title of this article! This is neither Denial Of Service or an Exploit unless there is something I missed and it's possible to insert some code into the html for local execution. But there it is in big letters on the front page. :(
Yay me! ^^
Yes. Bam! Your web browser locked up!
Further proof that MSIE is the more advanced browser. After all, it doesn't require any additional code to freeze. Plus, it'll temporarily screw up your whole UI while it does!
(Sorry. I hate perpetuating the old MSIE vs. Firefox flamefest, but that joke wrote itself.)
Are you retarded?
