Although Mozilla has rolled out a patch on Wednesday to fix five flaws, three of which were classified as critical, a "highly critical" flaw in Firefox still remains.
The five flaws addressed by Mozilla included three the company rated 'critical'. These three flaws involve an error in handling out-of-memory conditions; stability errors in the Gecko rendering engine; and a bug in the way Mozilla's implementation of web workers handles posted messages, Mozilla said. Web workers are used to carry out scripting tasks in a way that reduces the processing load on the user interface.
