FF115 for developers
FF115 security advisories

CHANGELOG

• all changes
• ToDo: diffs FF114-FF115 issue
• ToDo: diffs FF113-FF114 issue
• ToDo: diffs FF112-FF113 issue
• v115 PR is at v115 #1680

note: there was nothing to action in FF113, and FF114 diffs (whilst late, earthlng was busy promoting world peace and planting 1 million trees) had nothing needed to be flipped.

All up since FF111 (112 was cosmetic) that's one flipped pref that only applies to Linux. ONCE AGAIN .. do not wait for arkenfox to update your browser - nothing of consequence ever changes these days that can't wait

ALL HAIL EARTHLNG for diffs ❤️

new in user.js v115

• the two new active ones are FF115+
• quarantinedDomains is a SECURITY feature that is unlikely to ever affect you, and if it did, it may have saved your ass

user_pref("browser.tabs.searchclipboardfor.middleclick", false); // [DEFAULT: false NON-LINUX]
// user_pref("privacy.resistFingerprinting.pbmode", true);
user_pref("extensions.quarantinedDomains.enabled", true); // [DEFAULT: true]

removed in user.js v115 (in section 6050 for prefsCleaner)

• it's been default in Linux since at least FF102

user_pref("middlemouse.contentLoadURL", false);

• moved to 9999: DEPRECATED / REMOVED in user.js v15

// user_pref("privacy.clearsitedata.cache.enabled", true);
// user_pref("privacy.resistFingerprinting.testGranularityMask", 0);
// user_pref("extensions.formautofill.heuristics.enabled", false);
// user_pref("browser.cache.offline.enable", false);
