Mozilla Patches 11 Bugs in Firefox

LinuxSecurity.com: Mozilla late Tuesday patched 11 vulnerabilities in Firefox 3.0, more than half of them labeled "critical," and fixed 14 flaws in the older Firefox 2.0. Firefox 3.0.2 quashes six critical bugs, four marked "high," and one pegged as "low" in Mozilla's four-step threat ranking system. Among the most serious were four stability bugs in the browser's graphics rendering, layout and JavaScript engines that can crash the program and might be exploitable with malicious code. I find 11 vulnerabilities fixes in an mirror release to be pretty high. However, I am glad they are still releasing security fixes to Firefox 2.0. What do you think?
