The installed version of Firefox 3.5 is earlier than 3.5.3. Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

  • Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities could potentially allow arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2009-47)

  • The columns of a XUL tree element can manipulated in a way that leads to a dangling pointer. A remote attacker could exploit this to crash the browser, or execute arbitrary code. (MFSA 2009-49)

  • A URL containing certain Unicode characters with tall tall-line height is displayed incorrectly in the location bar.
    A remote attacker could use this to prevent a user from seeing the full URL of a malicious website. (MFSA 2009-50)

  • A remote attacker can leverage ‘BrowserFeedWriter’ to execute JavaScript code with Chrome privileges.
