Newly disclosed, unpatched security flaws in three browsers could make the Web a more dangerous place to surf, experts have warned.
Security researchers published details on the bugs in Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, Apple Computer’s Safari and Mozilla’s Firefox to security mailing lists over the weekend. The Firefox and Safari bugs could cause the browsers to crash, while the IE hole could be exploited to hijack a vulnerable Windows computer, Secunia said in advisories on its Web site.
The security monitoring company deems the IE flaw, reported by bug hunter Michal Zalewski, “highly critical.” The problem has been confirmed on version 6 of the popular software, but could also affect other versions, the company said. The vulnerability lies in the way IE processes HTML tags. An attacker could exploit the bug by crafting a malicious Web site, Secunia said.
