Firefox version 2.0.0.16, released on Tuesday, and Firefox 3.01, released on Wednesday, address MFSA 2008-35, a flaw that allows command-line URLs to launch multiple tabs when Firefox is not running, and MFSA 2008-34, a flaw that could allow remote code execution as a consequence of a CSS reference counter overflow.
But now Mozilla has updated versions 2 and 3 of its Firefox Web browser to fix a pair of security vulnerabilities.
MFSA 2008-35 could potentially be exploited using what has some to be known as the "Safari Carpet Bomb" attack, a combined attack technique reported for the Windows version of Apple's Safari Web browser in May.
Firefox 3 was released on June 17, 2008 and wasn't considered in the study.
