Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser. This update upgrades Firefox to version 52.5.1 ESR. Security Fix: * A privacy flaw was discovered in Firefox. In Private Browsing mode, a web worker could write persistent data to IndexedDB, which was not cleared when exiting and would persist across multiple sessions. A malicious website could exploit the flaw to bypass private-browsing protections and uniquely fingerprint visitors. Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Konark as the original reporter.
