What happened? Was using standard desktop Firefox, but was just pushed an update labeled ESR

I have standard desktop Firefox 52.0.2 installed, but this morning the update pushed to me is labeled 52.0.2esr.

Why was an ESR update pushed out to me when I have the standard desktop release installed?

I have no plugins installed on my computer. No Java, no Flash, no Silverlight.

Hi Asa

Note that you can find this information in "More System Details" in the menu next to the question.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.12; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101

I did not apply the update labeled 52.0.2esr that was pushed to me this morning.

I just got another notification, though, prompting me to update to 53.0, and I did apply that update, as that was expected.

Fluke, I guess?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think many Windows users got the same odd thing this morning and it took a few hours to get straightened out.
