Log Message:
firefox: Update to 75.0
Changelog:
New
With today's release, a number of improvements will help you
search smarter, faster. Type less and find more with Firefox's
revamped address bar:
Focused, clean search experience that's optimized for
smaller laptop screens
Top sites now appear when you select the address
Improved readability of search suggestions with a focus on
new search terms
Suggestions include solutions to common Firefox issues
On Linux, the behavior when clicking on the Address Bar
and the Search Bar now matches other desktop platforms: a
single click selects all without primary selection, a double
click selects a word, and a triple click selects all with
primary selection
Firefox will locally cache all trusted Web PKI Certificate
Authority certificates known to Mozilla. This will improve
HTTPS compatibility with misconfigured web servers and improve
security.
Firefox is now available in Flatpak, an easier way to install
and use Firefox on Linux.
Direct Composition is being integrated for our users on Windows
to help improve performance and enable our ongoing work to ship
WebRender on Windows 10 laptops with Intel graphics cards.
Fixed
Various security fixes
Enterprise
Experimental support for using client certificates from the OS
certificate store can be enabled on macOS by setting the
preference security.osclientcerts.autoload to true.
Enterprise policies may be used to exclude domains from being
resolved via TRR (Trusted Recursive Resolver) using DNS over
HTTPS.
Developer
Developer Information
Save bandwidth and reduce browser memory by using the loading
attribute on the <img> element. The default "eager" value loads
images immediately, and the "lazy" value delays loading until
the image is within range of the viewport.
Instant evaluation for Console expressions lets developers
identify and fix errors more rapidly than before. As long as
expressions typed into the Web Console are side-effect free,
their results will be previewed while you type.

#CVE-2020-6821: Uninitialized memory could be read when using the WebGL \
