Re: Update: [TZO-26-2009] Firefox (all?) Denial of Service through unclamped loop (SVG)

Update: ------- Patch was ineffective, Length2 was fixed and both SVGNumber and SVGNumber2, but no SVGLength. Affected products : - All firefox versions below 3.5
If this bug includes version 3.5, there is a workaround: Set your cache size to zero until an effective patch is published. When this bug kicked in on my copy of Ff3.5 I thought the hard drive had blown a bearing from the noise it made. It hadn't ( whew ), and the workaround has worked fine.
