Description

Now available, release notes expected tomorrow.

Matches the candidate, which built with the current instructions (i.e. the grep and xargs sed is still needed with python-3.11-series).

In the main JS tests I grepped the log and got: 119 UNEXPECTED (failures), 6179 TEST-KNOWN failurs and 43910 TEST-PASS - that is a total of 50111 so now more than 50,000 tests.

For anyone like me who updates their certs when updating firefox-esr, the current certs include Mozilla's removal of the Trustcor root cert (at last!). Note that python-3.11.1's pip seems to still include that ('certifi' was updated after 3.11.1), but the envvar solves the problem.

Release notes expected tomorrow.

Release note now available. AFAICS there are no obvious security fixes in JS91 although there are changes in the js module loader (which might be security related) and also in the js wasm code.

Both contain TZ updates to 2022g.

CVE-2022-46878: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 108 and Firefox ESR 102.6

Reporter
    Mozilla developers
Impact
    high

Description

Mozilla developers Randell Jesup, Valentin Gosu, Olli Pettay, and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 107 and Firefox ESR 102.5. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code.
