USN-3544-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update caused a web
compatibility regression and a tab crash during printing in some
circumstances. 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 in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application
crash, spoof the origin in audio capture prompts, trick the user in to
providing HTTP credentials for another origin, spoof the addressbar
contents, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-5089, CVE-2018-5090,
