Likely 2.40 is affected. There will always be 0 day bugs and even a
fully patched Firefox will contain some. That is why I use Noscript and
an Adblocker. If a site wants that I turn off the Adblocker its a site I
will no longer visit. Even with Noscript there is a risk that a
whitelisted site is hijacked but you can't protect against anything.

There's a zero-day exploit in the wild that's being used to execute
malicious code on the computers of people using Tor and possibly
other users of the Firefox browser, officials of the anonymity
service confirmed Tuesday.
The versions span from 41 to 50, with version 45 ESR being the
version used by the latest version of the Tor browser.

Is a fix for SeaMonkey needed?
Am I affected ?

Someone told us that to protect us, It's simple, just disable javascript
... BUT
A lot of sites needs javascript otherwise, they simply never deliver the
page you asked.
So what ?
Must I install
