The Firefox web browser has been patched for security flaws, four of which were identified as "critical" by Mozilla.
A total of nine security flaws were fixed in the new release.
The patches include a fix for flaws such as one that allows scripts from page content to run with elevated privileges. With this, an attacker could cause an object such as a browser sidebar to interact with web content so that an attacker's code had elevated privileges.
