변경 내용

사용자의 동의없이 브라우저 설정을 바꾸거나 정보를 빼가는 부가기능이 최근들어 증가하고 있습니다. 어떤 부가기능은 불필요한 툴바나 버튼을 추가하고, 사용자가 설정한 검색엔진을 바꾸거나 광고를 넣기도 하며, 멀웨어를 사용자의 기기에 넣기도 합니다. 이 문서는 add-on signing이 어떻게 이러한 위협으로부터 사용자를 보호해주는지 설명해드립니다.

add-on signing이 어떤 것인가요?

Mozilla는 사용자들의 정보가 도난당하거나 조작되는 것을 방지하기 위해 가이드라인을 따르는 부가기능만 승인시킵니다. addons.mozilla.org에 불러오는 모든 추가기능들은 확인하고 승인하기 위해서 이러한 검토 과정을 거칩니다. 다른 사이트에서 불러오는 부가기능들도 Mozilla로부터 승인을 받기 위해서 동알한 가이드라인을 따라야 합니다.

Add-on signing targets only malware and browser hijacking. It does not control or censor the content that you choose to see.

What can I do if Firefox disables an installed, unsigned add-on?

If any of your installed add-ons gets disabled because it hasn't been verified, contact the add-on developer or vendor to see if they can offer an updated and signed version of that add-on. You can also ask them to get their add-on signed.

How does add-on signing protect me?

Firefox protects you against malware and browser hijackers by allowing only verified and digitally signed add-ons to be installed on your browser.

Firefox protects you against malware and browser hijackers by warning you about third-party add-ons that are not verified and digitally signed by Mozilla.

To use this new feature, please update to the latest version of Firefox

Newer versions of Firefox will protect you against malware and browser hijackers by warning you about and (starting in Firefox 41) blocking third-party add-ons that are not verified and digitally signed by Mozilla.

While Firefox currently has a blocklist system, it is increasingly difficult to track and block the growing number of malicious add-ons. The new add-ons signing process requires developers to follow Mozilla Developer guidelines and ensures that their add-ons are safe. Firefox warns you when an add-on did not complete the signing process. For now you can still install the unverified add-on at your own risk, but starting with Firefox 41, such add-ons will get deactivated as well.

Install add-ons only from developers you trust. Unverified add-ons may contain malware or hijackers that can alter your settings and steal your information.

What types of add-ons need to be signed?

Extensions (add-ons that add features to Firefox) will need to be signed. Themes, language packs and plugins do not need to be signed.

Where would I encounter unsigned add-ons?

Add-ons installed through the official Firefox Add-ons site undergo a rigorous review process before they are published. These add-ons are verified and signed.

When you install an add-on through another website, Firefox checks to make sure that the add-on has been digitally signed before you can install it.
