    An exploit for Firefox, reported 10 days ago and as of yet still not patched, is #-Link-Snipped-# access to Google accounts, including gmail.
    Firefox users are advised to use NoScript or turn off javacript on unknown webpages and stay logged out of their Google Accounts until a fix is issued.
    A 302 redirect error in Google, discovered by bedford.org's Morgan Lowtech aka tx, creates a domain-wide cross-site scripting attack allowing hackers to gain access and modify Google user accounts including e-mails, contact lists and online presence.
