Remains of the Day: Mozilla Pulls Firefox 16 Due to Security Vulnerability [For What It's Worth]

Remains of the Day: Mozilla Pulls Firefox 16 Due to Security VulnerabilityMozilla pulls the Firefox 16 download page, Google+ updates for iOS and Android, social browser Rockmelt comes to the iPad, and Google might be creating a call center for Nexus-related customer service.

  • Security Vulnerability in Firefox 16 Mozilla pulled the Firefox 16 download they released yesterday, due to a security vulnerability that allows a malicious site to "potentially determine which web sites users have visited". Mozilla has no indication that the vulnerability is in use, but will be re-releasing Firefox 16 tomorrow with an update to fix the vulnerability. If you'd like to downgrade to Firefox 15, which is unaffected, you can do that from the Firefox download page. [Mozilla Security Blog]
  • New in the mobile app: support for Google+ pages Google just updated their Google+ apps for iOS and Android, supporting Google+ pages as well as an updated Android widget, a new "Find People" experience on Android, and iPhone 5 and iOS 6 support. iOS users can also now edit posts they make.
