I don't like a workaround to disable a security feature instead of fixing it. What makes me feel a bit bad is that everybody has fixed versions by now, only we enterprise Linux users using the ESR version still don't have fixed versions available. I don't complain because we usually get very fast updates, but this time we seem stuck. I can live with it but it's a bit difficult to explain to our users. Did upstream already release new packages?

The price we pay.. :) BTW, Mozilla publishes tarballs that you can simply extract and run (and will self-update), you can use those (it's what I am doing as a workaround in fact until RH catches up): https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/60.6.3esr/linux-x86_64/ -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!
