Thumbs down A Serious FireFox Bug

A few days ago I have found a FireFox bug, and I am considering it pretty much strong. Those who browse exploit and vulnerability forums regular, has already known about this Bug.

Its a simple html code with a JS in it. This bug is originated with a null pointer location which make a DOS to FireFox [ cant tell very much details , as I have completely forgotten JS]. If you open a page with FireFox , which contains that code , FireFox would crash at once.

and the shocking most part is I have tested that exploit with Latest Version I mean v2.0 , and that exploits work! There is no fix/patch from Mozilla upto yesterday.I have that code , but I think, this forum is no appropriate to share this type of things. So if you need it , do some google,Buddies.

I don't have Firefox as I'm involved with several sites that don't handle it yet. I have thought about switching browsers though, and I was leaning towards Firefox. I went searching on the net for what has happened and found several articles, one being how Firefox is denying what has happened. Why are they doing this when a lot of people know this happened?

well , they can demand whatever they want. But the fact is latest firefox v2.0 is still vulnerable to that js code. Its their duty to protect FireFox from a easily exploitable code.
