Summary

firefox regression

Details

USN-5037-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update introduced a regression that caused Firefox to repeatedly prompt for a password. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, trick a user into accepting unwanted permissions, or execute arbitrary code.
