LinuxSecurity.com: Five hours after Mozilla officially released Firefox 3.0, researchers found a vulnerability in the new browser.Tipping Point has verified the bug and reported it to Mozilla, Tipping Point said on Wednesday.Since Mozilla is still working on a fix, the researchers won't share details about the problem. Tipping Point ranked the severity of the vulnerability as high, but said that users would have to click on a link in an e-mail or visit a malicious Web page before being affected. The issue affects users of Firefox 3.0 as well as Firefox 2.0. Wow, that was quick in only five hours a security vulnerability was found. I find it a little strange that a vulnerability was found that is said to effect Firefox 3.0 and Firefox 2.0 was not found earlier. What do you think about this latest released vulnerability to Firefox?
