Microsoft, Mozilla look into browser flaws
Microsoft and Mozilla are each working to tackle recently disclosed security flaws in the Internet Explorer and Firefox Web browsers.
The vulnerabilities were described last week in postings to a popular security mailing list by researcher Michal Zalewski. Each browser could enable miscreants to grab data via malicious Web sites, Zalewski said.
In addition, another Firefox flaw could let attackers change cookie files on the user's PC, he said.
Firefox developers, coordinated by Mozilla, have already crafted a fix for this flaw, according to a bug entry on the organisation's Web site. The patch has not yet been made available to the browser's users.
