    Mozilla Firefox 1.0.7 is out!

    Firefox 1.0.7 is a security and stability release. We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to this latest version.

    This version includes several security and stability fixes, including a fix for a reported buffer overflow vulnerability and a fix for a Linux shell command vulnerability.

    Specific changes in Firefox 1.0.7

    Fix for a potential buffer overflow vulnerability when loading a hostname with all soft-hyphens
    Fix to prevent URLs passed from external programs from being parsed by the shell (Linux only)
    Fix to prevent a crash when loading a Proxy Auto-Config (PAC) script that uses an “eval” statement
    Fix to restore InstallTrigger.getVersion() for Extension authors
    Other stability and security fixes

    It’s faster, it’s more secure than IE. if you worry too much about using this as your main browser, you can always have 2 of ‘em in your OS! :)
