Kasperskey said there is a spoofing attack in your previous versions of 32.x, and tells me to update to 32.0.3. I have that now. Why am I getting warnings?

I have kasperskey for my anti virus. I did a vulnerability check and it says this:

A vulnerability has been reported in Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct spoofing attacks.

For more information: SA61538

The vulnerability is reported in Firefox versions prior to 32.0.3, Firefox ESR versions prior to 31.1.1 and prior to 24.8.1, Thunderbird versions prior to 31.1.2 and prior to 24.8.1, and SeaMonkey versions prior to 2.29.1.

I have the latest version according to Firefox, so I do not know why it still says this. Please help, if I have the wrong version, what version should I have and where can I download it?

Help (Alt-H) - About Firefox If it says 'Firefox is up to date.' and shows version 32.0.3 you're fine.

In that case check with Kasperskey why they flag Firefox as vulnerable.

Otherwise you can download the latest version from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/

I wouldn't rely on an anti-virus software to determine whether Firefox is up to date or not.
