To kick things off on his Browser Fun Blog, author H. D. Moore started things off with a Month of Browser Bugs, during which he promised to publish a new browser havk every day for the entire month of July.

The final tally of bugs:

  • Internet Explorer: 25 exploits
  • Mozilla (demonstrated against Firefox): 2 exploits
  • Safari: 2 exploits
  • Opera: One exploit
  • Konqueror: One exploit

Both Firefox bugs have already been fixed (one of them was fixed within 24 hours).  The Internet Explorer bugs?  ..... What do YOU think?

Has anyone done automated exploit finding on Firefox? I'd like to see it done as heavily as done to IE.

Honestly, I don't know.

There are tools to feed differing data to a program to find an exploitable hole.

H.D.'s an awesome guy, hangs with 303 a lot.
