Mozilla Firefox updates to 3.0.10 and 3.5 Beta 4

"Firefox 3.0.10 fixes one issue introduced by the 3.0.9 release that actually ended up triggering frequent crashes in the browser.

:"Users of the HTML Validator add-on were particularly affected, but other users also experienced this crash in some situations," Mozilla's advisory on the issue states. "In analyzing this crash we discovered that it was due to memory corruption similar to cases that have been identified as security vulnerabilities in the past."

"It's unfortunate that the 3.0.9 release triggered crashes, however it is noteworthy that Mozilla reacted very quickly in getting the issue resolved."
