Updates 11/28/16 - PaleMoon, Firefox

Pale Moon: Release notes http://www.palemoon.org/releasenotes.shtml

27.0.1 (2016-11-28)

This is a bugfix release for some of the issues that popped up with the new milestone.

Changes/fixes:

  • Fixed removal of distribution/bundles/ copies of status bar code and ruby annotations code.
    This should clean up everything on install/upgrade that currently causes double code to create intermittent/odd behavior.
  • Backed out some media back-end changes to fix MSE playback on Twitch.tv and other similar sites.
  • Disabled pop-up network status in full screen by default (since video detection is rather iffy at the moment).
  • Fixed a regression causing the "reset profile" button to not appear in about:support on the default profile.
  • Worked around bad Netflix interface changes - it will now use a more compatible web UI.
    Please note that these Netflix changes were unrelated to the actual release of Pale Moon (26.5 is also affected).
  • Aligned base status bar colors with default prefs.
  • Fixed status bar options not being remembered.
  • Added an override for Amazon Prime videos so they won't stop us at the front door any longer when not using the Firefox Compatibility user agent mode.
  • Re-applied proper branding text to in-app licensing.

Firefox 50.0.1 https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/50.0.1/releasenotes/  )

Fixed

  • Various security fixes :
    #CVE-2016-9078: data: URL can inherit wrong origin after an HTTP redirect

    Reporter
    Alexander Inführ
    Impact
    critical
    Description

    Redirection from an HTTP connection to a data: URL assigns the referring site's origin to the data: URL in some circumstances. This can result in same-origin violations against a domain if it loads resources from malicious sites. Cross-origin setting of cookies has been demonstrated without the ability to read them.
    Note: This issue only affects Firefox 49 and 50.
