Title: Multiple vulnerabilities in Mozilla products
Post by Mark C on Oct 8^th, 2004, 7:58pm

Multiple vulnerabilities in Mozilla products

Several vulnerabilities exist in the Mozilla web browser and derived products, the most serious of which could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on an affected system

Go, go Netscape!! No virii, no funny security problems... Built in Pop-up blocking and spam filter, too. :)

Sorry Frank.....no one is safe....

CERT® Advisory CA-2000-08 (http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2000-08.html)

Attackers can trick users into disclosing information (such as credit card numbers, personal data, or other sensitive information) intended for a legitimate web site - if the user has previously accepted a certificate in which the name recorded in the certificate does not match the DNS name of the web site to which the user is connecting.

Much more.. (http://search.cert.org/query.html?rq=0&ht=0&qp=&qs=&qc=&pw=100%25&ws=1&la=&qm=0&st=1&nh=25&lk=1&rf=2&oq=&rq=0&si=1&col=xtracert&col=trandedu&col=vulnotes&col=techtips&col=research&col=certadv&col=incnotes&col=secimp&qt=netscape&x=14&y=0)

Be careful out there!

Safe Surfing,

Thanks, Mark. I'm using Netscape 7.1, and I'm always very careful with my personal info, anyway. :)
