Next week's 'Patch Tuesday' was already going to be quiet, with an update only for Windows. On Friday, Microsoft pulled that update, saying more testing is needed. In related news, officials at the Mozilla Foundation on Friday acknowledged that a potentially dangerous code execution hole exists in fully patched versions of its flagship Firefox web browser. Update: Seems like there already is a (temporary) fix available.

I am running CentOS 4, and Red Hat released a patch yesterday for the bug (hit the CentOS repos today). I'm not sure whether they just applied the workaround, or else if they actually patched the code. Hopefully they patched the code, as this would allow the Mozilla Foundation to release an update using Red Hat's code.
