Products
Firefox, SeaMonkey
Fixed in
  • Firefox 2.0.0.10
  • SeaMonkey 1.1.7

Description

The Firefox 2.0.0.10 update contains fixes for three bugs that improve the stability of the product. These crashes showed some evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code.
