Patched libarchive Vulnerabilities Have Big Reach

The libarchive programming library was recently patched against three critical memory-related vulnerabilities that could be abused to execute code on computers running the vulnerable software. As is the case with most open source software packages, patching the core library is only half the battl...

Firefox 46 Patches Critical Memory Vulnerabilities

Mozilla yesterday updated Firefox and patched 10 vulnerabilities, one which was rated critical. Firefox 46 also included patches for four vulnerabilities that Mozilla rated as high severity. Critical bugs enabled remote code execution without user interaction, while bugs rated high can be exploit...
