[Full-disclosure] Is Firefox JavaScript flawed ?

All,

At this point the accusations made at toorcon have no validity to them. They
were made as "joke" by two individuals that seemed to have a need for
publicity. This is not to say that Firefox is better or worse than IE. I'm
sure that both have their fair share of vulnerabilities. But factually, no
excessive amount of Java vulnerabilities have been validated in Mozilla
Firefox. However, I think this a good shock to the community. Just because
something is open source and holds the number two slot for the browser
marketshare, doesn't make it bulletproff. People have a bad habbit of
assuming that because it's not Microsoft that it is super secure.
