Comment 1 Mark J. Cox 2004-12-07 10:38:42 UTC 
The Mozilla Software Foundation do not in general treat simple
unexploitable crashes of a browser as a security issues.  Removing
security severity.
Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2006-07-10 22:47:50 UTC 
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security
updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and
reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and
hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test
release, reopen and change the version to match.

Thank you!
