Mozilla Corp. has released Firefox v3.5.1 to address a security flaw that it has described as "critical". The vulnerability lies with the software's Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler used with Javascript and it could be exploited by an attacker to run arbitrary code on a victims computer, such as malware or something similar.
Changes in Firefox 3.5.1

• Several security issues.
• Several stability issues.
• An issue that was making Firefox take a long time to load on some Windows systems.
