I would like to know how the Firefox CVEs are affected on its version which are mentioned in NVD.
Let take mfsa2025-59, for example CVE-2025-8040, as per the NVD its says Firefox ESR < 140.1 is affected so does that mean it affect all the version which are lower than 140.1 which included the ESR 128 and ESR 115 versions or just the ESR 140 version series? then it raise on more question check this cve-2025-8029 in NVD it has specifically mentioned it only affect "Firefox ESR < 128.13, Firefox ESR < 140.1" and not the ESR 115 versions. Could anyone confirm it does not affect the ESR 115 versions or it affect all the versions? Now check this one cve-2025-8027, NVD clearly mentioned "Firefox ESR < 115.26, Firefox ESR < 128.13, Firefox ESR < 140.1" are affected so what I understand is that if the Firefox ESR 115 is vulnerable to any CVE it would be mentioned in the NVD specifically.
My point is that if any Firefox CVEs are listed in NVD and it specify only one version like “Firefox ESR < 140.1” what does that mean? Does it affect all the versions which include ESR 128 and ESR 115 or just the ESR 140 series version only affected? If any CVEs are affected on the ESR 115 and ESR 128 does Mozilla specifically mentioned those versions are affected right? Just like its mentioned in the cve-2025-8027
Any help would be appreciated to clarify this.

We recently update Firefox with version 138.0 and now getting the message "Gah. Your tab just crashed" when opening the browser.
We attempted to update and install version 138.0.1 only resulting with the same error. We also found and attempted the following all resulting with the same error: - change the about:config page for settings to false for both browser.tabs.remote.autostart and browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2
- clear browser cache.
- enable Temporary Mode in the Help menu. This appears to fix the problem but only for the current browser session. When a new Firefox window is opened, the error reappears.
What is needed to resolve this error or is there a way to permanently enable Temporary Mode or some similar setting? Thanks for all your help with this.

Dear Sir or Madam,
We are experiencing an issue with various users on our terminal servers whereby websites open very slowly when using Firefox. When I access the website using Edge from the same user session, everything works very quickly. We have already tried creating a new profile in Firefox and clearing the cache, but without success. Could you please help us?
The operating system used is Windows Server 2022.

When I go to some websites, such as Corair.com it hangs. I cannot click on anything. If I try to access specific pages via a search engine the same happens. I can close the browser but the 8+ processes don't terminate so I have to kill them from task manager.
I clear all of my browser history when I close FF so I can't remember all of the sites this happens on, but it was more than just Corsair.com.
I'm using 140.2.0esr, but also had the problem with 140.1.0esr. I did not have this issue on 128.12.0esr (I upgrade to 140 after that).
I tried turning use hardware acceleration off/on, that didn't fix it.
I am just about to try safe mode.

I have a lot of Firefox windows and tabs open, and I really don't want to lose my session.
I wanted to open a webpage in Firefox in fullscreen mode. But evidently there's some kind of serious flaw in Firefox that makes it incapable of opening webpages in fullscreen mode. Everyone says the only workaround is to open the webpage in kiosk mode. So I tried it.
But now I have two big problems:
1. One of my Firefox windows, with all its tabs, is stuck in kiosk mode. (Even if I close the window and then restore it with Ctrl+Shift+T, it's still in kiosk mode.)
2. All new Firefox windows I open with Ctrl+N are also stuck in kiosk mode.
I don't know what to do, and I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hello. When navigating YouTube on the main page, if you simply Hover the mouse over "Previous page (Alt+Left)", then SOMETIMES strange music or some strange video plays. Important: there is no video of this unknown video, just the sound plays. Other browser tabs are closed, only the YouTube tab is open. I use Firefox ESR, since I have Windows 7, I use the latest version of Firefox ESR. The extensions that are installed are Ublock origin and uvpn. I don't know if it could have been infected by an unknown virus? I scanned with ESET, installed Comodo, but the problem was not solved. I would really like you to sort this out. Please don't ignore me. I want to understand what's going on. I am open to new questions on this topic that will help resolve this situation.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to uninstall an extension using a GPO, but it's not working.
I've placed a GPO on the user's OU and configured the ID to be removed in the User-Part of that GPO. I previously retrieved the ID using about:debugging.
But nothing happens; the extension isn't removed. (Logoff/Logon/reboot/gpupdate /force .....)
128.11.0esr (64-Bit)
The GPOs for Edge and Chrome have the same function. Enter the ID there, and the extension is reliably removed.
Any suggestions? Thanks
Michael

The recommended methods, changing to this in the registry :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\Certificates] "ImportEnterpriseRoots"=dword:00000000
Reverts back to 00000001
Put this policies.json and did nothing: {
"policies": {
"Certificates": {
"ImportEnterpriseRoots": false
}
}
} What am I missing or what's changed?
My specific need at the moment is to add another search engine option in about:preferences#search
Thanks.

I'm using Firefox ESR 128.10.1esr on Kali, and I'm encountering an issue where the 'Refresh Firefox' option is missing from the ☰ → Help → Troubleshooting more Information. This is preventing me from restoring Firefox to its default settings. I've already tried the following:
Restarting Firefox
Clearing the startup cache
Confirmed there are no extensions installed
None of these steps have fixed the issue. I need a way to reset Firefox ESR to factory defaults, but I can't find an option to do so. Attached is a screenshot of the Troubleshooting Information page.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I am going to deploy Firefox ESR in an environment where the default topsites provided by the top-sites.json included in omni.ja (namely Wikipedia, youtube and reddit) are not desirable, and I want to provide my own. I cannot find a way to do so.
Setting the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.default.sites preference through the policies.json file does not work (the pref gets loaded but it does not influence the actual default topsites, which is not surprising since the default value of this pref has nothing to do with the actual default topsites).
Note that I am not seeking to remove the topsites from the homepage entirely (as would be achieved through the FirefoxHome/TopSites policy), I want to change the default ones.
I tried creating my own top-sites.json in /lib/firefox-esr/browser/ where omni.ja resides, but to no avail.
