Bug Verifications
When you verify the bug is fixed, resolve it as VERIFIED FIXED and replace the fixed1.8.0.7 keyword with verified1.8.0.7
Tips:
- Bugs verified on 1.8.1 still need to be verified in 1.8.0.7
- If you don't see an easy way to verify or need further clarification add a comment to the bug or add "[needs testcase]" (without quotes) to the bug's Status Whiteboard.

- 11 security bugs ("fixed1.8.0.7" bugs, no "needs testcase" in status whiteboard, and is marked "security-sensitive"):
