#27979: extensions now update without restart the browser, isn't this dangerous? --------------------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: h1n1 | Owner: tbb-team Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Applications/Tor Browser | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: invalid Keywords: | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: --------------------------------------+-------------------------- Changes (by gk):

The update without browser restart does not change anything assuming there is no code audit between updates. From a usability side however it is a big improvement as one gets the latest extension version that may fix security bugs in extensions without losing all tabs etc. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/27979#comment:1> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
