In the Interesting Bits post for today I pointed to an article that spoke about a flaw in Firefox 3.5 that supposedly resulted in DNS queries not being proxied correctly when using a SOCKS proxy.
Eric "SecRunner" posted a comment that this was not the case. He indicated that it was a proxy management add-on that is the culprit.
He is absolutely correct in his assertion that Firefox 3.5 does not leak DNS queries when a SOCKS proxy is configured. I tested it myself in my lab and saw no leakage.
I have not personally confirmed the proxy management add-on issue at this time so will refrain from commenting on that.
I apologize for feeding you erroneous information.
