Does anyone here know when Firefox 1.5.0.5 is due to hit yum repositories?

There's several major security updates[*] in this release, and with published exploits
widely available it's only a matter of time before we start seeing compromised FC5 boxes.

I'm curious as to whether this would lead to compromised Linux boxes. I
can't read the details of those exploits, I can't see if they lead to
what are really Windows exploits done through a web browser, or
something that's cross-platform.

Some of these look quite serious.
