Mozilla to Issue Firefox Security FixBy Nate Mook, BetaNews April 28, 2006, 12:59 PMThe Mozilla Corporation plans to rush out a minor update to Firefox, numbered 1.5.0.3, in order to address a denial-of-service vulnerability in the most recent version of the open source Web browser. The move comes despite the flaw being rated "non-critical" by security firm Secunia.The security issue involves an error in the handling of unexpected "contentWindow.focus()" JavaScript calls. A malicious Web site could be used to "corrupt the memory and cause a crash by calling the "contentWindow.focus()" method on a container with specially crafted content," according to an advisory.

I fixed the blank Download Action by removing the old Profile folder and letting Firefox create a new one. Of course, I had to reconfigure all of my settings (don't forget to move the old profile folder to a safe place so you can restore things like extensions and bookmarks) but it did the job.
