Hi everyone, after the round of bagle last night, it is advised
that users update their pattern files to the latest release.
Besides updating your pattern files, you may also want to update
your Firefox browsers to version 1.5.0.1. This is due to multiple
vulnerabilities found in the browser. It is noted that successful
exploitation of some of the vulnerabilities found can allow the
execution of arbitrary code.
“Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in
Firefox, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass
certain security restrictions, conduct cross-site scripting
attacks, potentially disclose sensitive information, and
potentially compromise a user’s system.”
You can find a discussion of the said Firefox browser
vulnerabilities and the affected version from Mozilla. (Click on the
