Mozilla Fixes 24 Bugs In Firefox, Majority Marked Critical

Mozilla Corp. late Thursday updated its Firefox browser to patch a mega-batch of 24 vulnerabilities, the bulk of them tagged “critical.”

Just days after rival Microsoft fixed 10 bugs in its Internet Explorer, Mozilla unveiled Firefox 1.5.0.2, which included 7 patches, 5 of them critical. It also unveiled 11 new patches for the older Firefox 1.5, 15 for the even older Firefox 1.0x line in an update numbered 1.0.8, and 19 in the Sea Monkey browser suite, the replacement for the now-defunct Mozilla suite. (Note: Tallies exceed the total of 18 patches because some were applied to more than one version.)
