If any Trisquel user facing a malfunction she cannot explain would write in capital letters that "Trisquel might have been compromised", then the forum would be full of such messages. If, every other user could simply state, without any justification, that this is due to a vulnerability in the application, then that would be the (almost always wrong) answer to every request for help.

The "reference" you gave does not even relate to Trisquel's browser, which is based on Firefox 22 and not on the ESR branch. On the correct page, none of the vulnerabilities of Firefox 22 that were fixed in Firefox 23 (t3g wrote it was such a vulnerability to have the pleasure to criticize, one more time, Trisquel's lead developer) has a direct relation with SSL/TLS.

Sure, there exist vulnerabilities, such as this one that "could be exploited to run arbitrary code". But, now listen carefully: if your system was compromised, it would not behave in a weird way. When bad guys gain control over a system, one of their main goal is to not be detected so that the system stays in their botnet. You can therefore be sure that your your HTTP connections were not systematically ceasing to be secure because your system was compromised.

Now please stop bragging about how you are worrying about security. Security is not a matter of "opinion" (as you write) and you obviously do not know much about it. And, please stop attacking every user of this forum who disagrees with you.
