Subject: Firefox vulnerability -- trojan horse

Hi folks,

I recently got the information of a german site that there is a trojan
horse vulnerability for firefox.
The attack pretends being a WalMart invoice. The trojan horse will be
installed as a firefox
extension (maybe plugin??) and starts to sniff / record all browser
input like user id and password
from shopping and online banking.

thanks,
tom aka gonzo
