For those of you that have not seen this yet, a vulnerability in FirefoxÂ’s pop-up blocker has been found. Hit the link for all the details.



There is an interesting vulnerability in the default behavior of Firefox built-in popup blocker. This vulnerability, coupled with an additional trick, allows the attacker to read arbitrary user-accessible files on the system, and thus steal some fairly sensitive information.
