Symantec: Mozilla's Browsers Suffer Twice The Flaws Of Microsoft's IE

Mozilla's popular Firefox browser has been subjected to nearly double the vulnerabilities of Microsoft's leading Internet Explorer, Symantec said Monday as it released its semi-annual report on the state of Internet security and threats against personal computers.

According to Symantec's Internet Security Threat Report, which used stats from January through June, 2005, Mozilla's browsers suffered from 25 vendor-confirmed bugs in the first six months of the year. Internet Explorer, on the other hand, was pegged with only 13.

Of Mozilla's 25 vulnerabilities, 18, or 72 percent, were tagged as "high severity," up from the 14 most-severe flaws disclosed in the last half of 2004. Meanwhile, IE's total of 13 was fewer than half the 31 made public in the last six months of last year.

在 google 搜寻一下 firefox + isearch。

DeepRed：FF出现一两个安全问题确实需要嚷嚷一下.
IE嘛,见怪不怪了就不需要各位嚷嚷了.回到原帖

正确来说是 symantech 在 2005 年至 6 月总共发现 25 个 FF 漏洞及 13 个 IE 漏洞。

另外 secunia 在 2005 年至 9 月总共有 19 个 FF  漏洞报告及 11 个 IE 漏洞报告。

提出 isearch 这 1 个例子是因为 isearch 比较有名，在 mozillazine 有几十个相关帖子，也有详细讨论惹上的途径。

IE 现时修补漏洞也很快：
