A prominent security researcher has published the results of application tests on prominent Web browsers that he claims has uncovered scores of new, previously unknown security holes. Michal Zalewski is a Poland-based security researcher for Google. The results include the discovery of a large number of remotely exploitable holes in Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, Mozilla s Firefox browser, the Opera browser and those using the WebKit HTML rendering engine. Many of the vendors in question were notified of the holes more than six months ago, prompting the call for broader community engagement to get the holes fixed.
