Secunia - Advisories - Mozilla / Firefox / Camino IDN Spoofing Security Issue
I harp a lot about the problems with IE, so lest it be thought that I never say anything positive, let this be the first time. This is a warning regarding a flaw in most browsers, including the Firefox browser that I have and continue to recommend highly. It does not, on the other hand, affect the Internet Explorer browser.
There is a fix for the Mozilla browser, but currently no fix for Firefox 1.0.
The bug allows phishing websites to spoof addresses so that they appear to be legitimate sites. You can get more information at this web address. You can test to see if your browser is affected at this address.
Again, this does not affect Internet Explorer but does affect many other browsers.
