“Mozilla is out with another rapid release of the open source
Firefox web browser. Firefox 11 delivers at least 8 security fixes,
including a fix for zero day flaws reported at the pwn2own hacking

use-after-free memory flaw in shlwapi.dll and what Mozilla refers
to as, ‘miscellaneous memory safety hazards’.
