Comment 1 Josh Bressers 2004-12-10 01:36:09 UTC

There is no upstream fix for this issue yet, but as soon as one
exists, we should push to get this fixed for RHEL4.  This issue is
extremely dangerous since it affects all popular web browsers, making
it platform agnostic.

This is labeled "important" but isn't on the blocker list.  Is that because we
don't have a fix as of yet?  I'm tossing onto the RC blocker candidate list so
that we make sure to track accordingly.

Comment 3 Josh Bressers 2004-12-11 18:24:37 UTC

Correct, as far as I know (as of this moment), there is no upstream fix.  Chris,
are you aware of anything I'm not?

The upstream bugzilla entry mentions a possible fix, but nobody has confirmed
the patch (it's a different issue, but may also fix this as a side effect.)
