Mozilla Firefox 19.0.2 Security Update Due to Pwn2Own

Posted on 6:58 PM by Unknown


The CanSecWest security conference is underway and Firefox fell along with others.  However, Mozilla developers quickly diagnosed the issue, built a patch, validated the fix and the resulting builds, and Firefox version 19.0.2 has been sent to the release channels.

What’s New

FIXED -- 19.0.2: Security-driven release, see details in the associated security advisory

Update

To get the update now, select "Help" from the Firefox menu at the upper left of the browser window, then pick "About Firefox."  Mac users need to select "About Firefox" from the Firefox menu.

If you do not use the English language version, Fully Localized Versions are available for download.
