NoScript 2.2.8 Fixes Regression

A new version of the script-blocking extension for Firefox, NoScript has been released. The only change in the current stable version refers to fixing a regression from the release candidate build.

Although fixed in 2.2.8 release candidate, a bug would cause problems with the protection against Koto's Cursorjacking technique. The bug would regress, leading to clicks on some nested documents.

The latest releases of the extension have not introduced new features, but instead focused on eliminating bugs reported by users.

In version 2.2.7 of the extension, the developer solved another ClearClick issue with protection against two steps interaction attack based on HTML5 DnD.

NoScript extension for Mozilla-based browsers allows JavaScript, Java, Flash and other plugins to be executed only by trusted websites of your choice. You can download it from this page.
