We've made a minor update to Flock that includes some security fixes patched by the good folks at Mozilla. We recommend you upgrade to the 0.5.14 version to keep your browsing experience safe.

Here is a list of the security issues fixed:

  • MFSA 2006-29 - Spoofing with translucent windows
  • MFSA 2006-28 - Security check of js_ValueToFunctionObject() can be circumvented
  • MFSA 2006-25 - Privilege escalation through Print Preview
  • MFSA 2006-24 - Privilege escalation using crypto.generateCRMFRequest
  • MFSA 2006-23 - File stealing by changing input type
  • MFSA 2006-22 - CSS Letter-Spacing Heap Overflow Vulnerability
  • MFSA 2006-20 - Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.8.0.2)

Please note that unlike the Firefox update, we have not updated to support the universal binary yet.
