Hello all,
In light of the new add-ons issue, what would be the fate of enterprises
running older versions of Firefox? Our organization runs thousands of
Windows systems with Firefox v61 with a managed add-on installation
using the windows registry method. How is the fix for these older systems
going to arrive for the add-ons bug?
The issue is caused by a certificate expiring.
The released fix is a work-around which reduces security by not checking
the addon's signature.
I'm hoping that Mozilla can get the appropriate certificate re-signed
- some certificates use retired encryption and I don't know which
certificates are involved, so this may not be possible.
That way the current fix can be reversed and all browsers
will work exactly as before.
Can somone confirm that this is the plan ?
